1997 nissan 200sx will not start has spark from distributer, have put new distributer in and new crank scenser and fuel pump comes on and has pressure, checked fuses and relays still has no spark

If the starter fluid worked for a little and the engine died again, it may be some of your filters. Check the air and fuel filters and replace them if they are dirty or haven't been replaced in a long while. This is the most common reason a car won't start.

Another idea is the engine may have been flooded. If you have a fuel injected engine, don't pump the fuel when trying to start it. The fuel pump primes the engine all on it's own. If the engine is already flooded, push the fuel pedal all the way to the floor and hold it there while you try to start the engine. This bypasses the priming and opens the air to blast any unburned fuel out of the cylinders.

Check to make sure you are getting spark with an inline spark tester (at auto parts stores) and if not try replacing (in order) the spark plugs, wires and (depending on your engine) the magneto's or distributor cap. Ask the auto parts store if they can look up if you have a distributor-less ignition or if you have a distributor.

So, first the filters (air and any fuel [there may be more than 1]) then check for spark and replace the spark plugs, wires, and magneto/distributor cap.

I hope this helps and good luck! Don't forget to rate! Thank you!

If the spark plugs aren't firing then you just have to follow it backwards. the spark plugs should be connected to a coil or distributor. The problem could be there.

without knowing a lot more about why Nissan advised you need a fuse box I can only assume there is some insider information at Nissan

furthermore, is the concern intermittent?
is there voltage at the pump during the concern?
personally, unless it was under warranty in where I would not charge you for the new "fuse box", which is also going to include a new harness, I would have to prove this is going to fix the problem

again, unless Nissan has some insider information I do not, the repair diagnoses seems simple...
during the concern
1.) is there power to the pump
2.) is the computer commanding the pump on
3.) what is the "volt drop" of the fuel pump circuit
