starting problems need advice
hey everyone
Ive been having issues getting the car to start and wanted to get sum input on u guys might think it may be. Now the car dont start but it cranks was thinking it could be my ignition coil but Im getting spark there, just checked my ignition control module and it tested fine, my injectors are pumping fuel into the throttle body so thats a good sign, my fuel pump clicks n makes noise for over 2 sec so looks like thats fine, put in a new fuel filter. I was told to get some starting fluid n spray it into the throttle body and it started but it dies within 3 sec unless I keep spraying the starting fluid. If any of u guys might have an idea of what could be going wrong post up need to get it running again.
Thanks for taking the time to read my post

I was thinking it could be fuel related as well just kinda stuck on what it could be tho. I kinda think it could be my fuel pump but it clicks and u can hear it turn on so idk if it is also I checked the fuel pump relay n made no difference
