1997 Chrysler Sebring 128000 miles

Yesterday my car wouldn't start because of a dead battery. We brought it into a shop where they replaced the battery and everything checked out good. The car started up fine. However, when it was time to leave the car wouldn't start. Some times the car won't start at all, and other times it'll take a few tries to get it going.

When it doesn't start, chances are you are losing spark or fuel when it doesn't start. When it refuses to start, you need to check to see which is missing. Here are directions (how to's) for checking both. For the fuel pressure, you will need a gauge. Most parts stores will lend or rent them. Check them and let me know what you find so I can better guide you.
