Best Answer

fuel pump or fuel pump relay...ignition module...crank sensor...most likely fuel pump though. take small rubber hammer along with you and beat the hell out of gas tank while your buddy tries to start car. if car wont start until you wake up pump(which is inside tank) by striking tank, then it is the problem.

A very dirty fuel filter is another possibility.
