Car will not start... - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

I pulled out the plugs from 1&2 and they both looked dry even while cranking it. The plugs themselves smelled like gas, but the cylinders looked to be dry, and with debris. Lifted valve cover a bit and the timing chain was intact. Pulled off distributor cap and wipe off excess moisture.

I will have to wait till tomorrow to lift the car to get to the starter ground. I have a lower jack at my parents house.

Does it sound like the fuel pump is not strong enough or maybe injectors? Could these have really gone out over night?

Will be checking back for more advice and will post after I check for better ground tomorrow.
