sounds like it has something to do with the fuel,
not for shore what,but if its trying to start,thats what it could be,
get a fuel pressure gauge & check the fuel pressure coming out of the fuel line,from the fuel filter,
you might be able to find somthing out from that,

check your distributor cap and rotor, and see if your getting spark on the plugs.
