1998 Infiniti I30 Car won't start
Engine Performance problem
1998 Infiniti I30 6 cyl Front Wheel Drive Automatic 170,00 miles
My car won't start. A battery has been replaced. Heet put in the gas tank. Car heated on underside because a couple family members thought the fuel lines may be frozen. Still no start. Any suggestions?

Get a starting fluid or ether and spray into the carb or the throttle body on an EFI. Did it start and die? If not disconnect a sparkplug wire or 2 and ground it to the engine -have helper crank engine over-do you have a snapping blue spark? If so-you have a fuel related problem, check the fuel pressure to rule out the fuel filter/fuel pump/pressure regulator and listen to the injector/s are they pulsing or hook up a noid light. No snapping blue spark continue to troubleshoot the ignition system-power input to the coil/coil packs,distributor pick-up coil, ignition control module, cam and crank sensors- Note: If it doesn't apply disregard it
