Just starting happening, it i touch the gas pedal just a little the car will start but being a fuel injection engine I don't think this is good for the car. Sometimes when trying to start it the starter keeps trying to start it on its own and I have to turn the key off. HELP!

Sounds like a bad cell(s) in your battery. They will not hold a charge very well if they have been damaged or sometimes at all. Your charging system is probably running the engine most of the time which gives little room for charging the battery, and when it sits the little bit of charge is now just enough or not enough to get you going. If you can, try having the battery load tested (usually free) and also have a mechanic take a look at your alternator while your there. I think your alternator could be dying which is how you got a weak start from the battery if it turns out that the battery is ok.

i realise this is way late, but here it is for others' info. couple of clarifications there... first, the 1.6l engine has a belt, the 1.8l has a chain. second, if you have the 1.6, and the belt broke, you probably heard the sound of the valves punching holes in the pistons (more of a clack than a grind). you need to check for a broken belt, then check all the pistons for damage if the belt is broken, as the 1.6l engine is an interference engine. you may be replacing the engine. if it's the 1.8l, check the timing chain, and surrounding components. one of the tensioners may have broken (insert grinding sound here) and that could deffinately cause a no start issue.
