1991 firebird formula will not start

Please help, my fourmula cut off while driving.I replaced the fuel pressure regulator,distributor module,distributor cap ,vats relay,ECM.I have 40 to 50 psi fuel pressure at the rail.It will crank over but not start unless you spray starting fluid in it.no codes in the ecm.will the ignition switch on the stering collum keep it from running or would it not even crank over if this is bad.The key resistance is good even tied the resistor trick.

put a noid light on it to test for injector pulse, a bad ignition module or a bad p/u coil can cause the injectors to not pulse.
