I just replaced the clutch and flywheel in my 1991 Nissan 240sx. I put the driveshaft, transmission and starter back on today and tightened everything down. I went to start the car and it fired up for about 4 seconds and then died. Now I can't get it to fire up. I hear the starter working really hard but thats it

Any ideas as to what it might be? The car cranked right up before I replaced the clutch. Please help

Thanks

Make sure you didn't run out of gas. Sorry man, that's all I got. You think you'd have more suggestions by now.

Check your fuses, then check to see if your getting spark and fuel.

first thing i would do is take all those stickers off the window then i would check my harness and all my fuses.

Check your ecu codes to see if your tps or maf is failing or other things that what I normally do before I diagnose any thing.

tps, thats the throttle position sensor behind the gas pedal correct? how exactly does one check ecu codes, with software?

check the fuel pump, ignition coil wire to distributor, and check if it has spark.

thank you for all the feedback guys!! i finally got her running tonight. charged the battery up and after bleeding the clutch and some aggressive gas pedal pumping she fired up. i took her out for a test drive and the new clutch feels amazing. so happy to be driving her again. thanks again!
