1996 Nissan 200SX mileage: 130,000. My wife's car decided not to start this morning, we've never had any mechanical problems before.The engine is turning over okay, and it seems like it wants to catch, but nothing. I've let the car sit just in case the engine was flooded. I went back and tried about two hours later, but the same. It turns over, and wants to catch, but nothing. I don't want to keep trying in case the battery dies. Any suggestions?

First check for fuel pressure.The fuel pump may have failed, if it's okay, check for spark at the spark plugs. Next, scan PCM (computer) for fault or error codes.
