plain and simple....crank positioning sensor.
Could also be a dirty fuel system.You have a fuel injected engine and this puts your pump inside the fuel tank.When the pump is operating it will pick up fuel off the bottom of the tank.This is also where dirt,sediments and water sit.The filter on the end of the pump will plug up and starve the engine which will turn off (stall).After the vehicle sits a while these sediments and dirt will drop off the filter as some small amount of fuel drains back into the tank thus allowing you to restart the car. REPLACE THE TANK AND FUEL PUMP!!!

Why won't a 1994 Oldsmobile silhoutte start until after the steering wheel has been tilted a couple of times?
I have the same car. Mine doesn't start sometimes. It does not start after I have driven for ten minutes or so and stopped and turned off the engine for about 25 minutes. It will start immediately after it is turned off or ten minutes later, but not 30 minutes later. I have to wait about an hour or longer for it to start again. If I turn off the engine, then run back to the car every ten or fifteen minutes to start it, it is fine. I also think it will start if I turn on the ignition for 30 seconds or so before I crank it.
