Well my brother disconnected the battery for awhile and doesn't that reset the ECM? so that shouldn't be a problem right?

Ok 2 things 1 I'm stupid it's a 91 and 2 we were trying to start it up fixed a vacuum leak we found but the car likes to spit fire out of the intake manifold and still won't start, could whatevers causing this be what's preventing it to start and what would be causing it maybe the intake valve?
