O2 sensor, dirty fuel, fuel filter...could be lots of things. What kind of car and how many miles? Try turning the car on without starting it twice and then start it.

it sound,s like your air filter may be a little dirty,,also check the spark plug gap,,sometime,s when the plug,s get a little age on them,,the gap become,s too wide,,they will also cause this to happen,,also think back at when you might have changed the gas filter,,it,s best to do this at least once a year,,you said once you re-start it then it goes,,so it is nothing serious,,but there are about 15 thing,s that it could be,,fuel pump relay may be kicking out on it,,when it first recieve,s voltage,,i had one last week that done that,,and the second time you started it ,,it was fine,,a cheap fix,,try some of these thing,s before you go buying a lot of expensive part,s you don't need,,i been a mechanic for 35 yrs,,and sometime,s it the cheap part that fixes the problem.
