All old gas out of tank and new fuel put in, you can hear fuel pump come on (have not tested pressure yet) sprayed starting fluid in TB and car started for a few seconds and died tried to restart without success. Plan to put in more fuel tomorrow, check pump pressure and check filter also injectors and I have replaced all plugs and checked all wires all where good.

Did you make sure all the wires were correctly routed on the coil towers and not mixed up?That would cause a not start. Also try this after trying to start it again if your unsucessful try holding the gas pedal all the way to the floor while trying to start it. Also do you have a multimeter?I suspect you could have a bad coolant temp sensor and possible a bad connector to it. Keep me posted on what you find.
