In the morning the car starts right up but after i drive around a while and the engine is hot if I stop in a store and come back out the car wont start. If I wait a couple of hours it will start right up again. I t does this everyday so over it any help would be great.

I assume you have a throttle body. Before you start it (when cold) check the fuel injector with an ohm meter. After it shuts down check it again. If it shows open then that's your problem. Also check the temperature sensor.

Thanks will check it out today as well. Also I jacked the car up when it would not start again, and I tapped on the starter and it started right up. Going to take out the starter today and replace but I will also check the injector to.
