I really need help on this one! Ok so i have a 92 KA24DE S13. It was sitting for a few months because there were some issues and i couldn't drive it..now it won't start..i've checked everything..its got compression, spark, fuel, pretty sure its gettin air...but it just cranks...I pulled out a spark plug and watched it spark, all of the plugs when i pulled them out were wet with gas. The plugs may be fouled? but they still spark but right now thats my next step is to get new plugs. also my motor has the egr system removed. what is my next step and what should i check? thanks..

Is it -4000 degrees up there? is your battery fully charged? clean your plugs and try starting it on a fully charged battery

If it does fire up with dry plugs and a good battery--you still might have leaky injectors if the problem comes right back. It does sound like maybe it just needs a good jump start.

after i clean the plugs and i have the battery hooked up to a running car (to jump it) it might pop like one cylinder fired but then it would keep on cranking..so yeah i dunno

If you're getting ignition at every spark plug, then here are some possibilities:- ignition timing incorrect- injectors leaking badly- plugged up air filter
