My car won't start

Ok so I get in the car and try to start it up and it tries to turn over but it just won't start up. But then I get back in it 20 min later and it starts right up........ What the heck???

Kind of basic, but it's either ignition or fuel... A ghetto way to get pointed in the right direction would be to try to start the car and crank it for a few secs. Go to the tail pipe & if it smells like raw gas, you more likely have an ignition issue rather than fuel.
