HELP!! wrecked maxima won't start

Hey guys I know you all know alot more than I do so maybee you can help me out.... I wrecked my maxima and thre was some damage to the front end and the underhood fuse panel all the fuses are good the elctrician and the bodyshop mechanic can';t figure out what is going on the car will crank and just not start. It acts as though it is not getting gas. There is not a check engine code. The car cut off after the accident and would not start back up. So here's what we got No check engine code. Fuses and relays all are ok car cranks but won;'t start. No physical damage to the engine is visible from the accident it stoped at the radiator

Help!!!! no rental car and I haven't had a car for 6 weeks now?
Thanks in advance guys

Re: HELP!! wrecked maxima won't start

pull the fuel filter off and see if their is any gas in it.. you might not be getting any gas to the engine.. also.. you may want to check to see if your spark plugs are getting spark..

Very silly/obvious suggestion: Have you checked the fuel system inertia switch? It should have tripped in the accident and cut off ur fuel pump.
