try plug change. my problem ended up to be a coil wire. unscrew boot and cut 1/4 in off. screw boot back on.

does this affect anything else???

what?

if u mean the coil wire, no. i am saying this because the wire inside could be corroded/worn. by cutting 1/4 off u will solve this problem.

if you are giving it gas while your trying to start it... dont. try giving throttle, then let off, then try to start, i had this similar problem which eventually led to a weak battery, so now i have to jump it time and time again...

If you try all of these other suggestions and it still does the same thing it just might be your starter pinion gear is getting worn down. The only way to check that is by removing your belt cover and you will see it.
Try all the other suggestions before you attempt this though.
