Hi i searched the forums but didn't come up with anything, but i have a 96 240sx with a manual tranny, the car has been sitting for more then a year without being started, I have tried starting it and it won't, im getting spark and fuel but it won't start, I have the airbags detachhed, all my fusible links are good. Other then fuses inside (had my friend check them while i was doing some other stuff so it might be them) but if not them what else can it be, its got spark and fuel what else do u need for it to start.

Try to step on the gas all the way down, and crank for 10 seconds at a time. Even with bad gas or old gas it should start. Try this 3 or 4 times with about 30sec to 1min intervals. You have to keep turning the car over to get the oil pumping.

Just a thought, but the battery might be too low to give adequate juice to start the car. It'll turn but not start if the starter isn't operating at minimum starting capacity. Does the turning moan at all? Try hooking up jumper cables then starting it. Also check that the plugs aren't flooded. Could be that moisture seeped into the cylinders over a year and they're wet. Happened to me.

Good luck.
