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

But its worse than that. I got back from work, went to start it and it would crank like for a second and then would stop and the starter would buzz. It was locked up
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.
