So these may be two seperate issues or have to do with eachother.

Car: 1988 Supra Turbo Auto - only basic bolt ons

Issue #1: After driving my car for a while (basically enough for everything to be nice and warm) and then turn the vehicle off for ~30 minutes and try to start it back up the car will die unless I push on the accel to get the revs up and then it will even out and be fine. If I do it immediately after or 2-3 hours after turning the vehicle off it doesn't have this problem. Any thoughts?

Issue #2: Very randomly (probably one out of ten starts) when trying to start the car I will have to have the key turned anywhere from 5seconds-20 seconds and then it will start. It makes absolutely no noise or indication that it is trying to start. No clicking from the starter at all and then it will just suddenly work.

Any help would be much appreciated. Thank you.
