So, why were you going to use starting fluid?

To try and see if its a fuel or an ignition issue. If it started and ran with the fluid, its fuel, if it doesnt, its ignition

This is an indication that you are hydro-locked. Starting fluid will not start a hydro-locked engine.

Take this car to a shop to be diagnosed.

This post is now closed until you do so.
