It has got to have voltage because you said all six cylinders have a spark.
Are you sure?

That is fusible link #7 under the hood, not a dedicated fuse or even a multi-purpose fuse.

Let's just start over.
No need to do the compression test again though.
You have spark at all six cylinders.
Do you have voltage to the fuel injectors with the key on run and on start?
Does the engine start and run for a few seconds after spraying a few shots of starting fluid into the throttle body?

All six are firing, there is voltage to injectors (with tester grounded to negative terminals) the car will not start with fluid in throttle body.

No, I said fusible link 7.
Okay, you cannot ground the test light to the fuel injector negative wire, you have to use either a metal ground or the negative battery post.

Forget about the fuel injectors for right now, because the starting fluid should substitute for the entire fuel system.
If you have spark on all six, good compression and no fouled spark plugs, it has to be the firing order, unless of course you think the compression is good and it is not. What were the compression readings?

That compression is okay.
Are you sure of the firing order?
You are aware that #1 is on the passenger side?

Does it backfire either out the intake manifold/throttle body and/or out the tailpipe when using the starting fluid and cranking over?
