What is it failing to do? Is it cranking? Turning over? Stalling?

Check your ignition parts - a severely worn distributor cap & rotor and spark plugs can cause a morning no-start due to condensation that develops on the electrical contacts overnight. If you haven't changed these parts within the last 30,000 miles, they're due for replacement. Pick up a new cap and rotor and a set of NGK ZFR5F-11 spark plugs.

Have you physically checked for sparks when the car cranks but will not start? Is the spark weak and yellow or strong and bluish white?

Just needa try doin your average 30,000 mile tune up!!! Check BATTERY connections also. Corrosion can happen.. Make sure battery has a charge, and make sure all your spark wires are pushed down tightly!!

what you need is a pgmfi main relay. when the weather is hot the pgmfi relay solder points get cracked

i think i figured the problem out.. first i thought the tw sensor was bad cause i unplugged it and it started.. but no next day after it set all night no start again.. so i done some research and checked ny ecu ground which was coroded . so i grounded it better and it started and has been starting since.. but im not sure fuel pump could be going bad but i checked fuel pressure regulater fuel is coming out so if the pump was dead no fuel would come out...right.....
