Depends what you define by non starting? If it won't turn over then I suspect the starter is suffering from heat soak which is a common problem due to the close proximity of the exhaust manifold and the starter.

Starter motor if it's not spinning over as said above

 

Common fault is a bad earth not starter, try replacing battery to starter cables
