Unhappy Hard Starting?

Hello!

I just got a '97 Boxster w/ 37000 miles. The car runs great, but have had a few problems. My current issue is this, if I go to start the in the morning when it is cold, it starts fine. If the car has been running and then you turn it off then go to start it a few minutes later it starts fine as well. But is you let the car sit for a hour or two it has a very hard time starting. It takes 3-4 times before it will start. I've taken it to my local mechanic and they put a new fuel regulator in it and it didn't help. They have check for vaccum leaks, checked the fuel pump, CEL isn't on. The car has had it 30000 mile service. I also had a new mass air flow put in (that was for another problem). Any ideas, I've read about fuel pump relays going bad? Any thoughts would be appreciated. By the way, where is the fuel pump relay?

Thanks! Love the site!
