98 Pathy will NOT START! Has Spark, Has Gas, Battery is Good, Checked Fuses,Wires, Starter. And No Codes come up!!! Changing Cam Sensor (for junk yard). Do you think ithat could be it ?? Same thing happened two years ago and had to replaceThe Brain (chip) for $700 for part plus $500 for labor@ Nissan. UGH!Any ideas if Cam isn;t it ????

Not really enough info... but perhaps the distributor has gone bad? I've seen a few people with bad dizzys that still had spark, etc.

Doesn't crank over at all? That's not a cam sensor.

Changed Distributor but that's not it.Checked MAF sensor. That's not it.Wants to turn over (sounds like it will); but it doesn't turn over.
