Default 96 ZJ another no crank wtf

It started dying randomly and then would crank with no start.I replaced the TPS the IAC and the CPS.Sometimes it will crank right up and run great for awhile and then die,when it died I checked it for fuel and fire and it didnt have any fire,also replaced the coil recently too.I also checked the cap and button they look fine.Oh and I checked the ASD relay and swapped it with the AC relay no change.Ideas?

Sounds like you may have a cam sensor issue, they will crap out when they get hot and then work again once they cool down. Super easy to replace, it's right under the distributor cap and rotor.

Thanks Busted I will check that out.Hot or cold doesn't seem to matter though.Most times it does it when its cold and then when I get home from work it will freaking start.
