I had similar symptoms, I believe it was a split (leaking) vacuum line attached to the bottom of the throttle body.

I have an 88is w/ 190k miles, 5 spd. First thing in the morning it fires right up. During the day, after being left off for at least 15 minutes, I have to crank it, stop, crank it again, stop and then usually on the third try it will start. Hot or cold, wet or dry it doesn't matter. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. TIA
