my 98 ford f150 did that with the 4.2v6 it cranked hard and didnt start until you did it again it was the fuel pump relay for me wouldnt hurt a try only 8 bucks.

As a other member stated it could be a fuel pump relay. If the relay was bad the engine would have to build up oil prs to make the fuel pump run which would take a while while cracking the engine. It could also be a bad check valve in the fuel pump. The gas would drain out of the lines and would take a while to refill them.

If it turns over strong the first time your probley not getting gas. If it has a small gas leak it will lose it's prime and takes time to pump gas from tank to engine

it could be a low battery, or a starter relay or the starter. probably just a minor fix.
