I Have A 95 240sx Se And Here's My Problem...

I Was Driving Down The Road And My Car Just Stopped Working. All Lights Were On So I Know My Battery Worked Still. I Heard No Knock, No Noise No Anything It Just Stopped. I Had My Foot On The Gas And It Did Nothing. I Didnt Run Out Of Gas I Know That.

I Checked My First Spark Plug, I Have SparkReplaced Distributor Cap And Rotary Button Fuel Pump Runs-i Can Hear It Start When I Turn The KeyWhen I Crank It Up I Can Smell Fresh GasCar Cranks Up But Will Not Turn OverTried Starter Fluid In Intake Just To Make Sure, No Luck Checked The Smaller Colored Fuses, None Dead

What Could It Be?

Thats going to cause the car not to fire? I have spark and fuel (I can smell), but no fire.

it takes more juice to fire a plug in compression than it takes to fire it out of the car. your coil may be weak.
