This could be your starter.
Is it only happening after like 8+hrs parked?

doesn't start all the time....hmnnn try turning your key to the start position, and let it crank over, and when it is started don't let go of the key only let it fall back between start and on.

i.e. hold the key with your hand half way between start and on after it cranks over. Your ignition switch may be fried, mine was, and i had the same prob. goodluck, if you need more answers, p.m. me, and one more thing if it is the ignition switch, and you need to change it, it is very easy, it'll take you about 5 mins. as long as you know that it does come apart. p.m. me, i have a writeup somewhere. goodluck
