Car has full power now and does not start. No strange noises, normal sound when i turn the key but engine does not start. cleaned up the cables to the battery, switched off the anti-theft and reset engine already. Infiniti I 30, 2000, 146k which was working fine before battery died

Disconnect MAF, test. What happens?

Injectors do click if ECU gets +12V and is ok - when cranked. Use a 7$ stethoscope point on injector and listen (long screwdriver works as substitute, note: ear on handle, tip on the injector:) ... do u hear the clic?

When cranked for a longer period with no spark, u will definitely get gas smell. Smelly?

Find a spre plug, pull one coil off, insert plug and ground it on engine: view for spark ... is there any?
