at times unable to start engine.

warm or cold weather

after sitting for hours or short time

engine cranks without any attempt

no notice of problem after it starts

sometimes can start after waiting 10-15 min.

reputable garage found no error codes

suspect electronic or electrical based on all or nothing response

new battery, fuel pump, plugs, dist cap.

Any experience with this?

Any of these most likely?

ignition coil

ignition control module

spark ignitor

magnetic pickup

Any tests to locate weak item?

thanks,

Had the same problem. The FI relay was faulty when temp under hood was hot.
