2001 Trooper starting problem

In the last 6 months my Trooper has begun failing to start upon the first crank. Engine cranks fine, just fails to fire up. This generally happens when the engine is warm. It usually starts on the second try. A little pressure on the gas pedal during starting seems to help.

I serviced the throttle body but that had no effect. I then waited a few months before doing anything else, since the car was coming up on a 60,000 mile service.

Well, I just had the service done and the problem still hasn't been cured.

Any ideas anyone?

Thanks in advance.
