2003 Oldsmobile Alero, Crank No Start

I have a 2003 Alero that has a no start condition. It has the 3.4L engine, and has 110000 miles. It started hard one evening, and then when I went home and parked it in the garage, it didn't start the next morning. I replaced the fuel filter since it hadn't been changed in a while. I went ahead and replaced the fuel filter regulator, because it smelled like raw fuel in the vac hose pretty bad. I put a fuel pressure gauge on it and it was a little low. I went ahead and changed the fuel pump. The car will start with ether and run and drive normal. As soon as I leave it sit for a while, it won't start again unless you ether it, then it will start and run fine. This thing is really making me pull my hair out. Hopefully someone has some answers. Oh, there are no codes either......

No Codes, No Check Engine Light. Has started the last couple days now, but it probably won't tomorrow.
