Help: Having a hard time starting car

[zerocool1799]

HI Mga sir tanong ko lang po kung may idea kayo kung ano problem ng kotse ko.. Minsan kase pag namatayan ako ng makina habang nagddrive, ang hirap nya start ulit.

Minsan need mo pa pahinga mga 5 minutes bago mo pwede subukan ulit kse ni nde mo maririnig na parang natunog yung engine pag ni start sya. Erratic po kse dahil may mga times naman na pwede mo sya start ng wala problema.

Newbie question pansin ko din if i try i turn yung ignition key to start yung kotse parang tataas yung temp guage tapos pag nag start na babalik sya sa normal position nya.. normal po ba yun?

TIA!^_^

As advised po:
1997 Corolla GLI
Manual Transmission

Recent Work Done on the car:

REMINDER: it might "help" narrow down the problem if you mention the brand and model/year of car you have. Also any recent work done on the car would also speed up the process of eliminating possibles.
