It definitely sounds like an ECM problem. I assume that since you said if you poured fuel into the throttle body the car would run, that means you are gettingspark.One other thing to look at, does the check engine light come on when you turn the key to run? If not then it indicates an ECM problem also.

Yes I do have spark. When I pour fuel direct into the throttle body it tries to run. I will have to check on the "check engine" light. I do not recall seeing it light up. I really appreciate the help and direction. Once I get an ECM, I will let you guys know if it fixed the problem. Again, THANKS!

Replacing the ECM did the trick!!! Thank you very much for the help and direction.
Now I can get busy with the other issues I have. I am sure you will here from me again. I can't tell you how much I appreciate the help from both mech259 and vette ZX6. It felt good to drive it around the block!
