Ditto on the fuel pump relay.
These symptoms spell a sticky FPR, which causes a vapor lock condition in the fuel lines.
When it happens (tough or no-start on hot day) take out the FPR and knock it on the ground. Put back and I bet you it'll start right away. When you remove it, it may be quite hot to touch, a sign it's on it's way out.
