Have been driving with no problems. Turned off the vehicle one day, went in 7-11 came back out, engine cranked but wouldn't start. Let it sit for about 7 hrs.(Had to be at work) came back and it started right up. Drove for about 2 weeks no problems, the other day it did it again, waited about 5 mins. (Didn't have to be at work) cranked it, and it started up no problems. Went out today and it cranks but won't start. Full tank of gas, new battery, recent oil change. I'm perplexed.

Do you have good spark at the plugs, engine cranking, good fuel pressure, use a gage for fuel pressure. Visually check for spark at the plugs. Let us know what you find.
