Hello, I'm new here (if you couldn't tell lol) and I'm in need of some help.
I have an '89 240sx two-tone coupe and she refuses to give me power. I wrecked her years ago in '06 and had to park her because the gas tank was damaged. She sat until about 2013 when I was finally able to get time and money to work on her again.
FINALLY got her running, drove her around a bit to get the cobwebs out, parked, cranked her again to be sure all was well, cut 'er off, replaced the spark plugs and wires (careful to make sure the firing order was correct), test cranked her, fired right up, cut 'er off and went in for the night. Came back out to crank her again to keep everything charged while I was getting the funds to properly register her again and I got nothing. Not even the door ajar musicbox. Tried hooking the battery up to a charge cart for a few hours. Still nothing. I realize that it could be that the alternator could've finally croaked but I was also told that it could be some sort of computer chip that could've died?
I guess what I'm asking is what are the main problems I should look at fixing so that I can finally drive my baby again.
