My 2002 Kia Spectra has 115,000 miles and started having issues with starting up in the mornings. It would start but then idle really rough and die. It would usually start up and be okay by the second or third time I did this. I took it to the Kia dealership and they simply cleaned out my throttle body and it's been working fine ever since. They said it was dirty/clogged up with carbon emissions and the like. You can buy a throttle body cleaning kit at an auto parts store
