2001 sunfire won't start 2.4L

Hello

My sunfire Didn't want to start then after about a min or two it worked fine. Then the next morning, NO GO. I've changed the crank sensor and the fuel pump is coming on when I turn on the key. I don't know what it is, any ideas?

If it dies right after going >55mph then it's your TCC solenoid.

I would be happy if I could get it to 55. It doesn't just doesn't. It did this a couple of different times to me now. I had it towed to the dealer and it started fine and ran fine for a month. It runs ok after starting.
I tried changing the plugs, and I have spark to all plugs.

When was the last time the fuel filter was replaced?

I replaced the fuel filter 2-3 months ago. It finally started today, I'm thinking it is an electrical problem cause today was the first dry day in a week.

Then it's more than likely your ignition coils. Also, maybe replace the spark plug wires with non-cheap ones also...
