The fuel pump is working, and I've got fire and compression. I poured a small amount of fuel down the TB and it tried to start but died.

Tapped on fuel press relay & put a small capful of fuel in TB. I held accelerator to floor & it cranked. Let run a good few min shut off retried. It cranked again & ran fine and then it died. Tapped relay again & it didn’t crank. Installed new relay & still won’t crank. Back to ⬛️ One.

Another question before I get started on the testing. Is there a crankshaft position sensor for this model? That would cause the engine to die on you.
