Exclamation Car wont start, then starts really rough

Ok so i get in my car this morning and it wont start, i try again and it wont start, basically it sputters and then just dies, on the third try it finally starts up but its extremely rough, i havent started it for like a week so i thought this might be the problem but it wasnt doing this yesterday when i put in the new clutchfluid. Does anyone know whats wrong?

Does is smooth out after it warms up for a few minutes or does it continue to idle rough. I don't know how the weather is in Elk Grove but it's very cold here and that causes my engine a lot of problems but I think I have bad seals.

I noticed in the thread you said it didn't do it yesterday, so did you start it yesterday and how long did you let it run?
