This has happened to me twice already. I'll go to start my car and it will crank but won't start. I'll try a couple times and stop. I'll then wait a few hours and when I go back out to start it, as soon as I turn the key it fires right up, no crank or anything.

Hi andrewarbo,

The symptom described seems to be the PGM-FI main relay that requires attention. It is a known problem whereby the relay would fail intermittently due to cold solder on its circuit board.
