What happens when it doesn't start? Do you hear a click or thunk? Anything at all? Does the motor turn over, and just not fire??

Intermittent no starts can be difficult to diagnose.
If you could include a year, model and engine size that would help us help you.

Was the battery load tested or did someone just measure the voltage of the battery static?
