'92 400e baffling no start condition

[mespe]

Hi all,

Well I took my 400e to church yesterday, drove like normal (Think I need an ETA), well after mass, the darn car wouldn't start, like it wasn't getting a spark, or wasn't getting fuel, only cranking like normal, no sputtering. Dismayed, I walked home. We went out to eat, and after dinner I went back to "see" if it would start. Well it did and I drove it home.

Now I'm afraid to drive it anywhere for fear of it not starting.

Anyone have any idea why a car that showed no signs of wanting to start, starts after sitting a few hours.

The distance driven intially was may 3/4 -1 mile. time for mass was 45 minutes.

Time for dinner was 2 1/2 hours.

i.e. drove 1 mile sat 45 minutes no start,,, sat another 2 1/2 hours and starts like normal.
