Are you actually getting high pressure fuel to the throttle body? If OK check fuses if OK unplug throttle body and put a test light between the connector terminals then crank the engine while observing the light it should be flashing if not get to a scanner to check for codes, I assume you changed the filter. I hope this helps

Fuel related if it runs with a fuel source sprayed into carburetor or throttle body. Check fuel pressure.
