   I take it you have cleaned the ICV? If not check one of your injectors isn't leaking. Could be stuck open and flooding it maybe. Does it just turn over but not fire?

   Coil pack mate, change that, as the engine gets warm it brakes up inside, and you won't start it again for a few hours until it cools down

   Ehh man, what kind of Rattle?
   
   The springs will rattle, but if there's a rattle fro inside, it's fuucckkeeddd.
   
   However, that doesn't matter, it will just wear out, it won't always rattle when it's dead
