What did you do to the AFM? Try jumpering the fuel check connector to start the car.

could be a faulty AFM, i ran into one a few weeks ago that would function if you unplugged it and plugged it in a few times with the ignition off+on. i swapped the airflow meter and the issue went away.

the faulty airflow meter was preventing the pump, injectors and ignition from functioning at all, well unless you jumpered the pump test connector but it still wouldn't start.
