Quasi, I remember you. I had a 93 9000 CSE and would often get info from you.
As LesH mentioned good chance it is the Crank Position Sensor (CPS). Typical symptom is that the car will not start after running but when it cools down it will start. I use to get my car started in a pinch by taking the DI off and removing a spark plug or 2 and pouring a little gas in there and buttoning it back up and it would crank over 100% of the time ( i do not know why it would start but it did everytime)I did have the CPS changed out by my local Indy, about $120 and never had the problem since.
Let us know how you make out and welcome to the 9-5 site
