Well, jaseow, I reckon you have two viable choices.

Live with it and try not to worry about it or take it in and get a diagnostic test done.

Back in the day, with cars with carburetors, one would pull the choke out a ways, pump the gas pedal a few times then crank on it. The old cars may take a few revolutions before they fired, depending on how well you read the weather conditions and set the choke appropriately and pumped the gas the right amount of times.

However, today, with many of the younger folks, they expect instant gratification (engine starting) right away and consistently.

Now, that reminds me, it's time for me to take a swig of my Milk of Magnesia.
