My vehicle will start one day and run just fine. Then some other days it'll turn over until the batterie dies. I have replaced all spark plugs and cleaned the IACV and throttle body yet it still does this. Any Ideas I can try to see if it'll fix it? I would appreciate all the help I can get. I am a DIY so if I can fix it at home let me know.

There shold be a Schrader valve above the ignition coils ( what a place to put it) hook the gauge to that and turn key on. Should be 50-52 psi. Put a shop towel around the gauge hookup when connecting and disconnecting to stop spray of gas on coils.
