OK, I am out of ideas. I changed battery due to new one being sold was actually two years old and bad. Lol. Then fuel pump wasn't circulating properly and that was changed. With new battery and fuel pump she fired to life right away. Drove around for good 30min and no issues.

Sat over night and would not start next morning. Left alone for a week or so and for hell of it tried to start and fired right up. Next day same issue, wouldn't start again. Just cranking and cranking but won't finish. Coughs a little at end of cranking. Any ideas at all on this would be great. Its summer and I want my car back out. Thank you everyone.

Fuel filter? seafoam it and add a bottle to the gas tank. How old is gas? ground wires ok? rats nest under intake? crank position sensor, there are lots of things it could be - eliminate fuel aystem 1st, Next time it doesn't start try squirting some starter fluid into the intake and see if it cranks if it does you know it's fuel system related.

Seafoam is in tank, had in since it was down for stabilizing, and added some a little fresh, sitting at a 1/4 tank. Will check ground and try intake spray hopefully tonight and get back. Fuel filter is new. How do I check crank sensor? Thanks for inputs.

Check your fuel pressure. I have seen more than one bad right out of the box.

Especially aftermarket ones, have seen them fail the next day.
Hope you get it figured out
