The car starts fine the first time you start it. After driving it, you can shut it off and it will not start back up. It will just spins over freely. I will have to let it set for 30-45 minutes and then it start again. I have replaced the spark plugs and one of the coils. I had it scanned and its coming up with multiply misfires.
Do you

When this happens, have you been able to check fuel pressure and spark to the engine?

Here are the how to's for both. One will be missing when it doesn't start. That is where we need to start from. Once we know this, then we will be able to better diagnose the problem.
