1.] re-read the title of your post.
2.] turn off your effing caps
3.] I had this happen to me, but it turned out to be my chipped ECU frying. I spent over $350 on parts before I figured out the problem though, so good luck.

if it starts it is not a starting problem it is an idle problem. it could be alot things timming, tune up spark plugs and wires cap, rotor i was going to say fuel filter do a basic tune up if it has not had one in a few years then go from there. that is just my advice trouble shooting the car would be better for any one to tell you specificly what is wrong. a vacume hose may have cam off or rotted ? many things

Or it could just be weak fuel pressure and you're fuel pump about to die. Me and my buddy had the same problem in his hatch and tested the fuel pressure, turns out it was lower the usual, so we changed it and no more bs.
