    You've verified that all the plugs are firing? Have you put a timing light on each wire to see if the plug triggers it?
    It's probably not a fuel problem, since it won't run on starter fluid either.
    As long as you have compression and spark, the engine should start. It almost sounds like your timing is way off. Since it's a distributorless ignition, you can't adjust it, but your ignition module might be bad. The service manual has a procedure to check it with a voltmeter.

    No spark is either a bad EDIS module, coil, crank position sensor, or a fault in the wiring. You can test all of those easily with a volt meter.
