Sounds like a fuel pump issue.

Not starting, cranks but won't start or doesn't crank at all?

Check your fuel pressure at start-up and idle....sounds like your starter/solenoid though. Does it not start when it's at running temp...but starts fine when cold?

The first time it was cold the second time it was at running temp. Could this have anything to do with an evaporative emission leak
