Need some help with my 2008 NissanFrontier Pickup 2WD 4.0L SFI DOHC 6cyl. It's acting exactly as if the fuel pump doesn't work but replaced the fuel pump and still behaves the same way. Not sure what to check next. Thanks.

Have you checked to make sure the fuel pump pressure is within the manufacturer's specs? Can you tell me what is happening? Also, let me know if you checked for spark to the plugs or if the engine will start when using starting fluid.

It will start with starter fluid. Haven't checked anything else yet.

If it starts with starting fluid, then it isn't getting fuel. Start by checking fuel pump pressure. If it is good and within the manufacturer's specs, then you need to check to see if there is power to the injectors. If you need help or directions, let me know.
