What is make and model? I didn't see it listed?
If it cranks good, but, won't start, have a helper crank it while you visually check for spark at the spark plugs, gasoline engine. Use a gage and check proper fuel pressure, engine cranking. Also, check for fuel injector pulse.
Can you check for applicable trouble codes?

SOURCE: 1990 montero no start. No power to open injectors, good fuel pump

Check the injector pulses with an osciliscope. If you arent getting a pulse check the ecu. I have cooked 2 of them. One killed my ignition but had good fuel. the second time it wouldnt open the injectors but had good spark. A quick check is to take the ecu out and take the cover off. then look for burnt electrical components.

SOURCE: 1993 Jeep Grand Cherokee Fuel Pump?

Between 100-140 thousand miles the fuel pumps go out on the 1993 cherokee. Its a fact. All parts are manufactured with the knowledge that it will last for a specific period of time then it dies. The relay switch was helpful for a brief while because there was still some juice in that pump, but now that it is gone it is gone.

If you don't see the fuse box under the dash in the driver leg area or beneath the radio check for a covered box under the hood. There should be a fuse spec guide on the lid of the box that tells you where specific wattage should go and for what purpose. But, your fuel pump problem will not be solved by a new fuse.

SOURCE: Cranking but doesnt start, or intermittently not starting

My car does the same thing...sometimes it wont start....have to turn the key off then when I crank it again it fires right away. Possible that the in tank fuel pump pressure regulator isn't building to the proper pressure. Nissan did post a recall....under warranty *recall* I might add.... there is an updated pump that will cure the problem but since you most likely are out of warranty it will cast $400+ for the part plus labour if you can't install it yourself. Call nissan to verify if your car is affected by referencing your VIN with them. Dave.

Check for a good spark at the plugs ,if ok check fuel pressure and fuel flow. fuel pressure should be around 300 kpa, Flow around 500 ml, in 30 seconds.

If the pump is good, check the fuel filter and the fuel pressure regulator. Also, if the truck has a factory installed theft deterrent system, it shuts off the fuel supply to the vehicle when it isn't working properly.

V6 hard to start.replaced coils sparkplugs . check relays and they check ok put new crank senser in still wont start. no dash lights work and there no fuel pressure on rail.and the motor cranks good and...

I think you've identified your own problem. In your description of the problem, you indicate "no fuel pressure on rail".....

First things first, try replacing the fuel filter. If this doesn't do the trick, make sure the fuel pump is actually pumping (you indicated that you hot wired it with a 12 volt DC supply and it ran). Running is one thing....pumping fuel another. To properly identify issue you need to know the cranking fuel pump pressure. If you can get it to start it would also be a very good idea to check out the fuel pressure regulator.

When you turn the key to the "ON" position (don't crank it, just to to the position where it would run) do you hear a few seconds worth of pump motor activity?

If it tried to start when you introduced fuel into the breather, then I think it's safe to say you have some sort of fuel delivery issue.

Well, some things need to be done systematically. Check for spark to make sure the coils are in fact working. Check for fuel to make sure you don't have a bum fuel pump and/or plugged filter. Ignition coils will get hot. The very fact that it melted may be the sign of a computer issue. Let me know what you find and then we can move forward.

Car wont start

being 94' im sure it has high miles, cam and crank sensor common to fail over time do to wear and heat exposure. check the basic, make sure you getting fuel and sparks. fuel pump only work as long the engine is turning over due to the crank sensor sense the flywheel turning. crank sensor may be faulty. no sparks, check coil make sure is good and putting out 12v, auto zone can test it for free. good coil, than check cam sensor, cam sensor senses the cam turning and tell the ecu to tell the coil to disperse the sparks to the plugs. cam and crank sensors, there no way of testing it but replacing the unit unless you have the special equipment to test it; both is fairly cheap to replace, check ebay.

Galant Special Edition 1994 Motor does not start

this maybe caused by no fuel or faulty fuel pump, ignition coil, wire and plug crank position sensor. first check for spark by removing on spark plug wire and put a spark plug in the spark plug wire boot, donot touch the plug only the boot have someone crank the car over. if you see spark, that part of the ignition is good. if not, check the coil resistance if should 40 to 80 ohm with a volt meter pf not replace. if ok, but no spark check the igniton control madule make sure the coil and module are receiving current. if not check the fuse that feels them. if it is ok, check distributor cap and rotor. if rotor and cap are fine, check for fuel at either the fuel filter, the fuel return line or removing some spark plug and see if they are wet. if there is no fuel check the fuel pump and the fuse and relay that control the pump. if there is fuel with high pressure but there is no spark, check the crank sensor for signal with a volt meter while cranking the vehicle
