It will crank and start sometimes then sometimes it cranks and will not start. I have to wait a minute or two.

The code P0016 leads to the crankshaft and camshaft position sensors. Here are some possible causes for this code: Timing chain stretched, or timing belt skipped a tooth due to wear, misalignment of timing belt/chain, tone ring on crankshaft slipped/broken, tone ring on camshaft slipped/broken, bad crank sensor, bad cam sensor, damaged wiring to crank/cam sensor, or timing belt/chain tensioner damaged.
