If everything seems to be working on a 1990 240 sx why it turn over?

Here are a few reasons why a 1990 240sx may turn over but not start:

- Fuel delivery issue: Check the fuel lines, fuel filter, and fuel pump to ensure that fuel is reaching the engine. Also, make sure that the injectors are functioning properly.

- Ignition system issue: Check the spark plugs, spark plug wires, distributor, and ignition coil to make sure that the engine is getting the spark it needs to ignite the fuel.

- Air intake issue: Check the air filter and throttle body to ensure that the engine is getting enough air.

- Compression issue: Check the cylinder compression to make sure that the engine has enough compression to start.

- Engine timing issue: If the timing belt or chain is off by even a single tooth, it can prevent the engine from starting.

- Electrical Issue: Check the battery and make sure the terminals are clean and tight, and that the battery is fully charged. Also check all fuses and relays to make sure none are blown or damaged.

If all of these items are checked and are functioning properly, then the issue may be more complex and will require further diagnosis by a qualified mechanic.
