Help please! My '87 LXI will not start. Occasionally it does this, I wait a few days, and then it starts. It turns over fine, just won't start.

Has fresh tune up parts and plug wires. Has good spark and fuel; although not sure about it getting into/past injectors.

It always ran rough for first minute when it does start, although I doubt that is related to this no start issue. Outside temperature seems to make no difference.

Where should I go from here? Any help is greatly appreciated.

what do the plugs look like? Make sure they are gapped properly.
