I have a 1999 Nissan Altima Gxe 2.4L engine. The crank will turn over but want start. Have already changed the spark plugs, spark plug wires, distributor cap and rotor. I also just changed the valve cover gasket cause it was leaking and changed oil and filter. It wouldn't start before i did the tune up and valve cover gasket change.
Is this a good question?

Did you check for spark and fuel? Did you check the timing belt and make sure it was on time? First steps before you do anything else.
You need to see if it has spark and fuel pressure. You need to check and see if the timing belt is broken. There are multiple reasons a car will not start.

How do you check the fuel pressure
My advice is take it to a shop
Are you sure the car doesn't have an inertia cut-out, which has tripped (they are designed to turn the engine off in case of accident)? I am not familiar with this car specifically, but the switches are sometimes found in the vicinity of the spare wheel well.

Yes. Changed spark plugs, spark plug wires, distributor cap and rotor. It wouldn't start before I did the tuneup on it. Would turn over but not start
