Three weeks? More tests are required. Did you check the fuel pressure at the fuel rail in the engine bay yet with a gauge? Maybe a faulty fuel pressure regulator is faulty?

I replace spark plugs I replaced wires I replaced the coil pack that was firing an orange Spark I did not check the fuel pressure because I do not have a gauge but I did spray starter fluid into the throttle body and it wouldn't even completely start for even a second. It did not have a check engine light on when it happened or beforehand tried to pull a code from it will not give me a code
