Default 2005 Neon SRT intermiten starting problem

Wifes neon has 15300 miles on it . and sometimes it wont start unless you feather the gas while cranking it over. Its very random maybe once a month. It did it twice yesterday so made an appointment to dealer and it didn't do it today. Also they said no codes came up so nothing they could do. Thanks for any help.

if thats the case you might has an evap leek thats small enough not to be picked up by the pcm, when you turn your key leave it on run for 2sec before cranking

Could be either the IAC not responding properly or a fuel pressure regulator not holding pressure. Possible injector leakdown too. With low miles like that get it over to the dealership and have them fix it. That is what they are for.
