not crank, and sometimes goes dead.

Starter

I went throught this for 2 weeks, changed out the coil pack, new battery, and so on. Here the problem was the starter. it was a rebuilt starter, hi torque, it cranked it over fine, after the engine got warm or hot, went to restart and nothing, no click, not a thing. Bought a new remanufactured starter for 50 bucks and have not had a problem since. I checked all my grounds, I was tracing fuses, basically going crazy, and it was the dam starter!

ok, well since it is cranking and you have power to the fuel pump, the starter connections are good, the ECM is getting power since the pump is triggered to run. I'd bet on the crank sensor being loose or going bad.
