When I start my car in the morning, it will start but I do need to pump the accelerator. If I drive the car for more than ten minutes, the car will not start and it reacts as if the battery is flat. To get it going, it will only need a quick boost from another car and then start.
If I left the car for two hours after driving for ten minutes it will start so it seems if the car is hot it will not start.

Have the battery tested and replace if faulty.
