is the injector firing ? does the fuel pressure drop after the system is primed when you hit the key /engine off ? Got a good spark , wires ? what do the plugs look like . Sounds like a fuel problem if starting fluid makes it fire up .

My 99Yukon doesn't want to start especially when it is cold turns over bit doesn't stay crink
