Default Engine wont start

Hello everyone..

I have a problem that happens everynow and then with my 6 cylinders 1992 Audi 80, sometimes when I trun the engine off, it wont start again !!, and starter keeps running but the engine wont start, I checked the fuel pump, and found it working properly, I changed the fuel filter and the 6 spark plugs, but the problem happend again 5 days later, finally, in the last time that case occured, I attempted to push it and rise my foot from the clutch peddle after shiffting the second speed (the car has a nanual transmission), and it surprisingly started !! after about 20 time for trying to start it by the initial starter, I turned it off and start it again, and it started regularly !!, so does anybody of you guys have an explaination to what is going on ?? and thanks in advance

How is your battery? Even if the starter turns over, the battery still needs to have enough power to start the car. Are you getting a check engine light?

No, I don't have anything abnormal, no check engine light, additionally, when it starts, the engine has a normal idealing speed, with no vibration, it starts as nothing had happened, the battery is good, otherwise it wont stand to sun the starter over for more than 20 times !
