Funny thing is that it always starts first thing in the morning when it's cool....always. It seems to show symptoms after driving it for at least 20 minutes and then trying to restart it within a couple of hours. After it has sat overnight, it always starts the first time. The mechanic that works on my cars doesn't want to change any more parts with properly diagnosing the problem, but since it never fails to start when it's in the shop, I'm going to have to do something or it will never get fixed.
Also, I haven't ruled out any possiblities related to the security issues but I've never had the security light flash while it's cranking or stay on at any time.
Take Care,

Ive been reading what's going on with your vehicle and trying to (hopefully) get an idea of what is wrong with my own. I have an 02 Alero and mine is not starting every morning. It turns over for 5 min. at a time but never catches fire. It sits in the parking lot at work for 8 hours every day and it cranks fine at the end of the day. It only does it in the mornings. Ive never put a fuel pump on my car (yea I know) and it has 111,000k miles on it. So Ive been told that I need to do that first. Have you tried that?
