When it is hot or humid out it takes 3 or 4 attempts before the car will start. I have changed plugs, wires, dist cap, rotor button, fuel pressure reg., and fuel pump. What else could it be?

Check the fuel pressure if its within specs though its a new fuel pump if okay, test the coolant temperature sensor- and check injectors if its leaking could also be the ignition switch
