89 300SE not starting right away.

As of late my car has not been starting up right away after it has been sitting overnight or for a few hours. I will crank it and it will act as if it wants to start, but won't. If I stop and then try it again it works everytime. It might take 2 or 3 seconds, but it will always work after the first time. Sometimes, I smell something burning under the hood. Once there was smoke in the air filter compartment, I took it off and started the car and haven't had that problem again. When I start the car my lights go dimmer, until it starts. Any ideas? Spakr plugs??
