If you have a manual transmission, try parking on a hill and bump
starting it that way several times. If it mostly starts easily when not
using the starter motor it will point to the path to fix this issue.

In the case that's not the hard start problem, how to do I fix it? And any more ideas on what might be the trouble with getting it started in the first place?
