What did you sprayed the TB with? Ether?
The TB must be completely connected to the air box & Air Flow Meter or the ECU will not run the engine.
Also there is a quirk in the ECU that if you start a cold engine & run it less than a minute & shut it off; the next time you go to start it tends to flood.
