Engine Mechanical problem
2000 Hyundai Accent 4 cyl Manual 81000 miles

The other night I came out of the movies and my car wouldn't start. It ran fine before that. The engine was turning over like it wanted to start but didnt. When I returned to tow it, I thought I would try starting it and it turn over right away and I drove it home and used it for two days. On the second day my car sat in the parking lot all day until quiting time and I was 10min into my drive home and the engined died and I had the same symptoms as above. I went to call my wife to pick me up and when I got back to my car. It started?
I have a 2000 Hyundai Accent, two door, manual drive and it has 81000 miles. ANY help would be Great. THANKS
UPDATE.I had my car checked and it turns out it was the crank position sensor.

When it dies, you need to check for spark and fuel to the engine. Here are the how to's:
