have the codes checked again to see what they are. Then check the cranks and cam sensors for resistance. Alot of times they don't give codes but aren't any good causing an intermittent or no start condition. Also check the fuel filter as it can cause some stalling running problems as well as the map sensor. Then clean the throttle plate with choke cleaner on both sides
