I have a 99.5 Pathfinder It cut out on my mother while she was driving home from work, It cranks but doesn't start and I have both gas and spark getting to the combustion chamber and it didn't jump the timing belt as both camshafts still spin and function as you would expect. Please help I love the car more than any sane person should and I don't want to see it die, It's been a part of my life since we bought it new when I was 5, it's driven me to elementary school, middle school, 3 different High schools, and 2 colleges and then covered another 299,000 miles before refusing to start. It is every bit as much a member of the family as I am. Please help.

Welcome to NICO.

Check under the distributor cap for excessive dust or dirt buildup, blow it out with compressed air if necessary. Also check the rotor for excessive scorch marks.
