94 Nissan Fuel Problem ?

Looking for a bit of guidance on what I think is a fuel issue on a 1994 Toyota Maxima. Vehicle is on the side of the street as I type this!

I get spark and engin turn over well, just won't fire. Vehicle is my daughters and I am not versed with all the quarks of this car. She filled up the tank this morning went to work and parked it, now it won't start. I checked for spark...good, distributor..looks good..cleaned it anyway.. When to the gas tank...don't hear the pump kick in on ignition turn on.. Daughter mentions that the security blicky light on the dash is not flashing as it normaly does..

Question..stock alarm systems...does it have a fuel cut off interlock mechanism Is the pump truly in the tank! If so..is there a connector that I can check continuity on bothe the mortor windings and float sender.. I can spot it from under the vehicle.. is it above the tank.....Or am I lucky and the pump is mounted elsewere outside the gas tank

Any insight would be appreciated..

Marc

The theft system immobilzer that dis-ables the fuel pump, only came in

1999 Maximas and later. You could start the car and drive for like 5 minutes and then the car would just shut down.

This is just a shot in the dark but make sure the gas cap is tight and not leaking air. All cars with fuel injection need to operate under a vacume. I had a leak in my line but the car would still start but run bad. Same for the cap. It would run but no power.
