Default 98 Coupe LX Wont Start sometimes

Hi, to all and thanks for Reading & Helping

I got my Car about 1 year ago its a 1998 Honda Accord Coupe Lx V6 Leather fully loaded Very Nice. only 50,000 miles

i have been having problems with it lately, i think it just needs a tune up but what it dose some times is.. it will start & run then ill turn it off for a few Minutes (after i have drove to where ever I'm going) then ill try to start it back up and it will turn over but wont fire up? I'm like What the Heck, its like it has no gas. Could it be the Injectors are Dirty? bad Starter? Bad Plugs? i don't have a Clue if some one has had this problem and knows the Solution.. please let me know.... Thanks....

It's it turning over/cranking and not starting? Or is it simply not doing anything when you turn the key?

1998-2002 are notorious for having flaky ignitions switches that won't allow the car to start whatsoever, no cranking.

short drive..restarting with WARM engine.

That situation is in a Service News letter that your service manager gave you.
Also it is in the newer owners manual.

Turn on the key for5 seconds, open the throttle 1/2 way, then crank the engine.
