Nissan Repair: 97 Nissan Sentra doesnt start., nissan sentra, sentra


Question
Ok, i noticed when i let my sentra sit for a couple days, it would take a little bit longer to start than usual. It sat for around 5 days recently and when I went to crank it, it wouldn't start. It sounds normal as far as trying to crank but it just doesn't crank. I have replaced the spark plugs and wires and it has changed nothing as far as how it sounds when It's trying to crank. The battery is good I'm pretty sure, because it doesn't drag when it tries to start. I'm just kind of lost on where to go from here. Thanks in advance.

Answer
First check to see if you have fuel pressure at the rail using a gauge.  If you do the next thing is to check for spark by pulling a plugwire and inserting a paper clip and holding it aobut a quarter of an inch from the block.  Then, ahve someone crank the car to see if you are getting spark.  My bet would be a bad distributor or coil if it is electrical.
