Starting issue

In the litany of problems,my Boxzter failed to start yesterday after running for about 45 min. It would crank till the cows came home but wouldn't fire for about 5 min. It's 105 degrees and the engine was above 180 degrees so could outside temp be an issue? I recently changed plugs and oil. Any thoughts?

Could be anything... Fuel pump relay, cam position sensor, crank position sensor. I'd start in that order.

Completely off topic, but I've gotta say that's the coolest spelling of "Boxster" I've ever seen.

Did you ever determine what the problem was with the boxzter? I am starting to have similar issues and i am leaning towards the fuel pump.
