Sometimes when a car over heats and it is really warm outside your car will not start due to " vapor lock "
Had a 98 with same prob. Check MAF sensor

how many miles on this puppy? there known for fuel pumps but if it seems to be turning over faster than usual it could be the timing belt
Does it turn over? Is it getting fuel, spark, and compression?
Start with a full tune up. Change Fuel filter, air filter, spark plugs, plug wires, if you have over 60k on the car time to change that timing belt (change belt and pullies also a good time to change water pump) and dont forget your serpentine belt.
I had the same problem on my 1996 Pontiac firebird, they told me that my ignition cylinder had went out. Maybe you could ask about that, I don't know what would cause that to go out though? I had a similar problem 1998 Mystique LS. It was a burnt out relay. Also the ignition switch (what the key turns on...I'm not a mechanic I think that is what it was called) was worn and I had to replace switch.
