When it won't start you need to check for spark as it cranks over, at the plugs, basic diagnostics, if none suspect either the crank sensor or ignition module.

Re: please help

If you have spark and fuel pressure and injector pulse it should run regardless of the other issues, there is a ground junction under the carpet l/s outer sill area, this could if corroded, account for the symptoms also.

I had a similar problem with my 98 caravan, ended up being my alternator! Don't know if this helps, but it could be your problem too. Take the alternator to a autozone to be checked.

I believe that is the fuel pump ground.
