then you have a fuel delivery issue. even on E you can have up to 3 gallons in the bottom of the tank that could have turned to sludge and killed the fuel pump. have you tested fuel pressure? pulled the pump out and inspected it and what is in the bottom of the tank? that's where i would start.

Been awhile since I've been able to troubleshoot, so this is what's going on right now. Checked the fuel pump and inside the tank is all good. I haven't been able to pull the injectors to test them which will be my next try at it. I had my friend start the car while I spray starter fluid DIRECTLY through the intake butterfly's, which every time I would spray that's what would keep the car ON. The spray acted as a gas pedal, the more I hold the spray on the higher it would rev, it revved to 7k and every time I let go off the spray it dies out almost instantly. Can it be a certain sensor that would cause a no start condition? Maybe it's the greddy enanage-ultimate ? Maybe the engine is too tired? Constructive criticizm is welcome as much as advice.

old gas is seriously no bueno. i'd focus your efforts on purging any of the old crud first and foremost, then verifying you get fuel pressure to the rails. hell, just squeeze the fuel lines to check if they're tight and primed after you've jumpered the fuel check connector. that's how I figured out my return and feed hoses were switched by accident. it also helps to know that your pump even works in the first place (listen for the whine) or that your fuel filter isn't clogged.
