problems starting sometimes

Ive been having a couple problems with my 02 ex not starting right somtimes, once and a while, you still get in and try to start it and it will just turn....I stopped and then I tried again and it starts fine....its done this a few times, is there any reason that causes this? or how do I go about fixing this?

ya it happens rarely for me but i guess could be worse. its prolly vapor lock or something. just keep it in ON position a few seconds before cranking. helps but it will still happen. nothings perfect.

it cranks but wont start sometimes if the immobilizer cant read the key. check to see if the green key shaped light on the dash blinks while you are cranking it and its not starting.
