Question type: Maintenance & Repair

Hello I have a 2004 Ford Taurus.   The other day I Had to replace the battery
in this car it drove home fine from the auto parts store after replacing the
battery. I came out the next day and the car would not start.  I let it set for a
couple days trying to figure out what it could be because in the last year I've
replaced the fuel filter, fuel pump, fuel pressure sensor, coil pack, and
Starter.  I went back out to look at it after it sat for a couple days and I tried
starting it and it started and ran fine. Anybody have any idea what this could
be? I also did check the fuel shut off switch that's in the trunk
