I replaced the fuel pump, computer, tumbler, and the ignition. The car will start with starting fluid then quickly die, everything fuel pump wise checks out. What could be keeping it from starting

Test the fuel pressure with an accurate gauge and check for injector pulse using a noid light and post back with the results.

Have you checked the actual voltage at the fuel pump?

Did you have the new pcm flashed to your car? If you did not, then chances are it wont start
