It's a sensor. I had one that was cracked. When the car warmed up the heat caused the crack to expand and the sensor wouldn't work. After the car cooled it was fine until it got hot again. The sensor is probably gone for good now. You would need diagnostics or troubleshooting to determine which one. You can get a hand held diagnostic computer for cars. Some auto parts stores check for free. You could see if any does a loan-a-tool.

Tries to turn over then wont let it sit awhile then it starts

It could be starter heatsoak (starter gets hot from engine heat and needs to cool down first).
You can fix it by putting heat wrap on the starter.

Flooded Hyundia Tiberon 2007

If your Hyundai, Tiburon refuses to start, it may be something more serious than a flooded engine. When the spark plugs look fine and the fuel injectors are running well, you may need a new charging or starting system for your car. If the starting system fails, then you need a new unit in order to get your Hyundai, Tiburon back on the road. The starting system in your Hyundai, Tiburon includes many parts such as the battery, ignition switch, starter motor and solenoid. Once you have the source of the problem contained, you have complete access to quality replacement parts here. Whether the battery dies or the ignition switch fails, you can find the parts you need for your Hyundai, Tiburon. Get your car back on the road when you check out this selection of charging and starting systems for your car.

Blazer starts fine, and after you have driven it awhile it stalls, after sitting a few minutes it starts back up?

I had this same problem with a early 90's Pontiac Grand-Am. I was asking around for this same problem and found out that it was the coil pack that was getting hot and causing it to lose spark. Once it cooled down it would start again. I replaced the coil pack and did not have the problem again.

replace the IAC or clean it. If it doesnt open when you try to start your engine it will not start, after it cools down it may work and let it start Idle Air Control Valve
