I got a 1999 Sentra it cranks but won't start. I thought the car was flooded so I pulled the fuel pump fuse out to let the gas out while I cranked it and pressed the pedal. When I took the fuse out it was popped I replaced the fuse, car still wouldn't start. I hear the fuel pump working. what could it be?

I pulled two spark plugs out, connected them to the wires and laid them on the valve cover. My friend cranked the car and there was spark.

getting any lights on ur dash? any codes?

check your airway make sure its clear your maf sensor wasnt jiggles loosei assume you hear the pump wir up when you turn the key to acc position

anything done recently befor this started working under the hood nail a curb anything like that that could have poped something loose?

other than that check the basics if you got spark and fuel at the engine your you may have something disconnected electrically

i would check the other 2 coils and look for error codes

This started when I had my car parked out in the street, I went out to put the car in the drive way. I turned the car on and it cranked but it didn't want to start until i pressed the gas some more. It started, I put the car in the drive way later on I tried to start it, it only cranked but no start. Fuel pump fuse was popped, I replaced it. The fuel pump works. I checked if any thing was loose, still nothing got enough gas in the car. Could the fuel pump relay be the cause of it? If so I can't find it I checked under the hood. I'm guessing it might need a new distribitor rotor or the fuel filter could be clogged.
