What?
Change your oil if its been 3,000 miles or longer, yes gasoline gets into the oil just smell you dip stick. Will changing your oil solve your starting problem, probably NOT.

Hard starting can be because of many things, including leaking injector(s), low compression, poor fuel pressure, worn spark plugs, no fuel in the tank.... the list is endless.
