Could also be the clutch interlock switch (the switch that looks just like a brake switch that is located on the clutch pedal mount under the dash).

The ECU won't let the car turn over unless the clutch is depressed and if the switch is intermittant you'll have intermittant starting.

I spent several weeks trying to track down my intermittant starting problem and this was ultimately the cause.
