the coil can do that especially if it gets too hot. when they get hot they will break down and not deliver the spark until it cools down.
 
Does the weather outside effect its starting at all? Like if it rained or is raining when to try to start your truck and it won't start? I had a similar problem with it starting when it rained or in humid conditions outside, I replaced the ignition cap and rotor, spark plugs, spark plug wires and the coil. Replacing those parts fixed my problem.
 
I have a 1997 Dodge Ram 1500, I have had it for about a year now. But i am recently having some problems with it starting. It did it on and off for awhile but now its a continuous problem. I have taken it to three mechanics and they said nothing seems to be wrong with it. But obviously there is if it wont start. By all means im not a mechanic with technical terms but heres what its doing, if i go somewhere and just start it at the beginning of the day it does fine it starts with no problems usually, but if i go somewhere and turn it off and it has time to get hot it wont start when i go to start it, it will turn over the fuel pump is kicking in and everything but it wont start it just keeps cranking over. If i wait about almost an hour it will finally start if i leave it alone. Anyone know what this problem could be? Its becoming more frequent and more frustrating. If you have any ideas just let me know.. Thanks!
