Dan,

 

Your # 3. It cranks a few times and nothing happens. Then I will try
starting a few times and it catches.


That sounds a little bit like the fuel pressure is leaking down. Could be a
leaky injector. Try turning the key "on" but not all the way to start,
listen for the fuel pump. After a couple of rounds of that see if it starts
better.
