starting problem!

ok here is my problem some days the truck starts right up. other days i have to crank it 2,3 even 4 times to get it to start. i have a couple of ideas. first the guy i got the truck off of side that he had problems with it befor and i think he said that it was the fuel shut off i think. another idea is the temp it has been in the low to mid 90's and i still wait for the wait light to go out is that good or bad.
any help would be greatly apriciated.
