1996 Buick Century 6 cyl Front Wheel Drive

I have replaced the fuel filter, coils, module, spark plugs and wires yet my car still will not start. I have tried starter fluid directly into the airflow. It still won't start. Help?

Have a helper crank it, while you visually check for spark at the plugs. Pull a spark plug wire loose, use a known good plug or spark tester in the boot. Ground metal part of plug/tester to metal part of engine, watch for spark, engine cranking. If spark everywhere, use a gage and check fuel pressure. Some of the national brand autostores used to loan out a fuel pressure gage, if you don't have one.
