i recently got a 92 infiniti Q45 from an auction and i need a FSM......if someone can email it to me at [email protected] that would be great!

also if someone can tell me what i do to get the fuel flowing through the engine of my Q45 again after it was well below E.......because what had happened was when i was driving the car from the auction i had got it from i realized the fuel level was right on E so i kept driving thinking i could make it to the nearest gas station, but not very far the car slowly started to slow down until it stopped completly i looked at the fuel level again and it was below E so me and my friends pushed the car to the side of the road and went to get some gas.........well after putting ten dollars worth of gas into the car we tried to start the car multiple times but it would not start.....actually it would come on but it would not get to the point where the engine would turn........i wound up having to get the car towed to my house after getting it there i tried to get it started some more and i started thinking that maybe ten dollars worth of gas was not enough because it wasn't even close to half filled so i got $25 worth of gas which i thought would be enough but i still couldn't get the car started so i decided to call it a night and maybe after letting it sit over night it might start the next day......but as you can guess it didn't start, so fast forward to this day it has a new battery, i got the gas tank nearly filled up because i thought that coming from bone dry it might need alot more gas but its still not starting.......i havent had it that long, i just got it last thursday and it was running..... if someone could give me a little insight as to what is wrong with my infiniti it would help me out a great deal.

Hope you didn't tow with all 4 wheels on the ground.

Get the Infiniti Dealer performed Service history.

Do some searches and do some reading. Very difficult to diagnose when there may be many things failed.

Start with articles and read about timing chain guides.

most likely the fuel pump was on its way out and that was the final straw for it..

These files are big 50-70 Megs few people even cable modems can email.Use the 94Q version as a reasonable guide to the 90-93Q obviously these manuals assume a certain level of expertise and tools and test equipment.
