Check the ground cables. You say it starts with a bump start?Maybe a problem with the starter motor as if its the original one , its 20 years old!A bump start bypasses the starter so i

the starter motor turns the engine over but will not start but bump the car and it it fires up
it normally fires up straight away when its going ok it only plays up about 1 in 10 times you start the car

I had this problem on a car and got the exact symptoms as you are getting and so i convinced myself it was the starter motor but it turned out to be the battery? now explain that if you can but after fitting a new battery i had no more trouble.

i have a similar problem with my 97/98 classic.
starts fine when its cold, but if you say go into petrol station to fill up, it wont start until you leave it for 20 or so minutes.
i was told it was my starter motor, so changed that, then told battery, so bought an upgraded one, told it was crank sensor, took that out and it was a bit dirty, so cleaned it, now im told it was the MAF sensor, so changed that too. ive also changed plugs, fuel filter, fuel pump.
only thing i havent changed yet is the cam sensor, but would this cause the problem?
