still isn't going

The car has 193,000 km it just got new plugs I don't really know what else has been done but I have a feeling that I might need to do more than just unflood it
I think that it only started because I sprayed a little ether in it .Does any one have a fuel pump for an 86 rx7?

Have you checked to make sure the fuel pump is bad?

How did you spray the ether into the intake? through the filter? If you have removed the piping from your AFM to your TB, then once you ran out of ether, your car will quit. That ENTIRE thing needs to be intact so the ECU will turn on the fuel pump.

Yes, man, you need your AFM hooked up and giving signals to the ECU to keep her running

I just tried to hook it all up and it did not work. Then I tried taking the plugs out and turning it over to unflood it but I'm really starting to think that it is not just flooded anymore
and that it night be something else because it did the same thing as last time it started for like 30 seconds then quit could either the computer or fuel pump be gone.

first try the obvious if you have not already, make sure timing is in correct, and make sure its not flooded by removing spark plugs and turning it over without the egr fuse..... also when you remove them, and turn it over does anything "fog" out.... if so, this is a good indication that fuel pump is working.
