Could be. Maybe fuel pressure being lost too. Just picked up a 380se euro car not to long ago and it runs fine but sometimes doesn't want to start even shortly after running. If you open the air cleaner and push the air valve with the key on it will squeal for a second. Then after that it fires right up. We're thinking leaky injectors not closing and letting the fuel pressure out.
