Smile 2000 Pontiac Sunfire - randomly won't start

Hi Everyone, I have a 2000 pontiac sunfire that has about 103K miles. It has been randomly not starting for me (it will turn over but won't "catch") If I let it sit for 2 days it will start up again, run for a few days, then out of the blue will not start.
It does not have problems while I'm driving,just when I try to start it up. I have had it to 2 different shops and every time I have it towed it will start again for them

Any ideas?

Air, fuel, fire.

If it won't start, check these. Air filter clear? Got fuel pressure? Got spark?

If you are 3 for 3, the spark timing is off.
