Under the why not try it catagorie:
Have you tried a new fuel pump relay?
This relay powers the fuel pump, fuel injectors, and ignition coils (and ?).
There are seperate contacts in the relay for the different systems. Maybe one is
bad?
I had a condition where my car would either not start on the first try or it
would catch just as I released the key after cranking. This problem vanished
when I took apart the fuel pump relay and cleaned and adjusted the contacts a
little.
