Aloha !!…this may be due to a bad fuel feed check valve or a failing crank or cam sensor….to check if it may be the check valve turn the ignition on and off for 2 seconds (fuel pump will prime for 2 seconds) a few times and then see if the car starts right up…a crank or cam sensor is a little bit more difficult to diagnose…a fuel pressure gauge will be needed to diagnose the check valve.
