      Crank position sensor, could be. Before you start throwing parts at it, do some research in the M20 section. There is a multitude of parts it could be, from the CPS to the Coolant temp sensor, tho the AFM, to the ICV, to the DME.... ETC ;)
      Shit man, could be a loose ground for all you know.

          Well I'm at a loss I guess I'll just read all night the weird thing is that the car has done this before then starts later but still needs to be fixed.

                  Try cleaning/wacking lightly your ICV.

                      It's either the relay to that fuel pump, wires or the fuel pump. I'm pretty sure this is it because I couldn't hear it when it wouldn't start but when it did start I could hear it.
