You say at times it will not crank at all when the key is turned and that teh battery is good.

Is it possible the battery in the key is low and is preventing the key from communicating with the car sometimes?

When my shut off solenoid malfunctioned I could tell if it would start when the key was turned to position 2 by hearing the valve open with a click on the side of the IP. This sound is much quieter than what I would describe the typical starter solenoid kick.
