NOVAX5 is on a distinguished road
check battery and alternator. weak battery and bad alternator can cause cylinders misfire (1 to 6) it then cause the starting problems. best thing to do is to have the battery, alternator and start checked out. cyclinders misfires can cause things like rought idling, timing, unstabling reving. but you say it doesn't start on first try in the morning, that seems like battery is on its way out. search for my posts on battery and alternator replacement posted sometimes ago.
