new battery, new battery cables, new starter, just had fuel filter changed and every other day car will not start. It cranks but will not turn over and they cannot find anything wrong with it. am afraid to drive for fear i will go somewhere and get stranded if it will not start.

It cranks but will not turn over: next time it refuses to start do below

Disconnect a sparkplug wire or 2 and ground it to the engine -have helper crank engine over-do you have a snapping blue spark? If so-you have a fuel related problem, check the fuel pressure to rule out the fuel filter/fuel pump/pressure regulator and listen to the injector/s are they pulsing or hook up a noid light. No snapping blue spark continue to troubleshoot the ignition system-power input to the coil/coil packs,distributor pick-up coil, ignition control module, cam and crank sensors- Note: If it doesn't apply disregard it
