Car: 94 GT Manual 300K miles

Situation: When starting the car with the engine warm, the engine will turn over and over and over without starting. If I give the car a little gas while turning over, the car will start up, and then have a rough idle for a few seconds and be fine.

The odd thing is, if I start the car using this method, turn it off, then try and start the car again immediately it will start up with no issues. If I end up leaving the car for 15-30 minutes (I've timed it) then it doesn't want to start. I don't even know where to begin with this one.... Any suggestions?

Take the throttle body off and clean the Idle Air Control valve, see if that makes any difference. The 5SFE is known for bad IAC valves.
