I'm having the same problem with mine it's a 84 300zx non turbo and I replaced the ignition coil, fuel filter, air filter, spark plugs, throttle position sensor, oil and oil filter it still cranks but won't turn over unless I spray starting fluid into the intake but then it cuts off when I press the gas pedal. If anyone can give some advice it would be very helpful

ok so check the fuel injectors or your coolant temperature sensor, that might help out
