I have a 2.5 in my 88 and i think i know what you mean about the starting. When was the last tune up on the car? These engines are notorious for leaking oil out of the valve cover gasket down the front of the engine and onto the spark plugs. Eventually it makes it way down to them and fowls them up. Then you'll have intermittent problem with starting. Another possibility is the spark plug wires and ignition module. They too will cause a similiar effect. Scrapper is right about the wires being dry.... if it was a rainier day the car just wouldn't really wouldn't want to start. Some other basic possibilities, is your crankcase filter and air filter. As stong as these engines are they are very tempermental about everything. hopefully this gives you some direction or help.
