GOOGLE ADWORDS flexible display approach, may fulfill more of your budget in the morning, afternoon, or evening, depending on user traffic patterns. As always, our goal is to provide the most effective advertising possible within your budget. Once you've selected your keywords, you'll see a recommended daily budget. If you set your daily budget to this value, you will maximize your ad's visibility and activity throughout the entire day. If your daily budget is lower than the recommended amount, Google will deliver your ads in when the demand is greatest; however, your ads may not appear every time they otherwise could if your daily budget permitted.

Also make sure you view your ads using the Ad Preview tool - I can't post the link since I've not had enough posts, perhaps someone else can? It means that you won't accrue impressions for your ads when you are just trying to see what position they are/if they are working. Also, it gives a much more accurate representation of the search results - and allows you to select different domains/languages/countries.
if yor budget is lower than google daily recomended budget, then your ad will not be showing throu out the day. it will be evenly spread out throu out the day. if you want yor ads to show all the time, then either you need to increase the daily budget or you can selsect accelerated impressions which way google will keep displaying your ads till your daily budget is spent
You shouldn't use Google to see your advert position. You should (as toast said) use Adpreview: www.google.com/adpreview. The results that you see on Google are misleading, particularly after multiple searches. * If an advert repeatedly appears, and you don't click on it, it'll be less likely to appear in the future * Your search results are influenced by previous searches - for example, if you search for Car Hire In Leeds, followed by Hotels, your Hotel results will be biased towards Leeds results. * Your advert won't always appear in the same position - Adpreview will show an average... * The search results are different in different places. You'll see your local results, Google will show the most common results (unless you specify a location). * Your advert won't accrue impressions on Adpreview, so you don't hurt your CTR
