I can start the car up first thing in the morning but when I turn it off it wont start back up til it wants to. Sometimes it will start up right away but other times it wont. Hasn't had a tune up 2 1/2 years.

To be honest, it doesn't sound like a tune up issue. Here is what to do to narrow it down to a specific area. When the engine won't start, check to see if it is getting spark and fuel. One will most likely be missing. Then, you will know which circuit to focus on.
