Starting issuesss

I started my car this morning and drove it to work then went to start it again after work It, turn the key.. put the clutch in and nothing in the start position. Took the key out and tried again.. Started right up.

Has been hit or miss for the past few days, today in the mcdonalds line shut it off to order(open cutout).. went to start it and it and it began to start and died out, then tried again cranked right up.

Thanks

check the connections at the battery and the starter, had a bad connection at the starter that did the same to me.

Cant be the cam.. Idle is around 800. It just started this week.. Maybe even Houston's humidity/rain is playing a role in this
