7MGTE 5 speed manual cranks, but wont start at times.

[powahh]

It starts right up at times, but sometimes doesn't start, it cranks, so it can't be the starter or the battery or connections.
What else should I check?:yikes:

Thank you. Ill check that out.
Where is it located?

And its not just cold starts. It happens when I park to go to a store or something.

fuel pump could be on the way out, how does it run once it starts?

It runs perfect after it starts. thats the thing...

Maybe try getting colder spark plugs?

Giggle the CPS wires the next time this happens. It is a common failure.

^ What he said. Or another thing you could try is while you're at home (just in case it decided to not start again) and the car is running in the driveway, jiggle the CPS wires and see if the car dies. I just replaced both sides of that connector this last summer and when I went to unplug it, 2 of the wires broke off on the harness side.

These wires are close to the turbo and exhaust manifold, thus why they are prone to cracking and breaking. The stock manifold and turbo heat shields do help a lot to make them last longer though.
