Hello, when the problem occured, it would crank ok, but wouldn't start? Have a helper crank it while you check for spark at the plugs and injector pulse. If that checks out, use a gage and check fuel pressure. You might have the codes checked, see if that points you in any direction. Around here, some of the national brand autostores will check codes for free.

Intermittent problems can be like hunting a needle in a haystack.
