to ahardbody : Thanks for responding, Your right , it is a throttle body injection system. Last nite after work I checked to see if the fuel pump was working. It appears to be , atleast I can hear it turn on, so I guess the fuel pump relay is OK. I did pour some gas ( alittle ) down the throttle body - it had no effect. But maybe it wouldn't in this system.....I am wondering if there is a solenoid of some sort between the fuel filter and the injection to the throttle body that may be malfunctioning. I also thought that possibly the timing belt had slipped alittle - but this happened over a week ago, same sympton ( wouldn't fire up ) and then a few days later in a shop they got it to go. So it the timing belt was off that didn't make sense. The mechanic in the shop ( not a nissan dealer ) did mention he thought he heard an audible click when it started working again.......is their a solenoid that opens and closes just before the fuel enters the throttle body ?

Other than that I can look in my 87 OEM service manual to see what they say, did you try to check for any codes in the computer??
