okay, driving down the freeway at 70mph, it just died. wont start back up. So far the crank sensor, ignition module, timing chain, cap and rotor have all been replaced, still no start. has plenty of spark, fuel comes out of the valve when i push it. it had a P1351 code. any ideas. any and all ideas please, im at a loss of what to do, thanks.

Year make and model and engine would help?
If good spark just clear code 1351 and see if it returns.
Does it have good spark to all plugs or just out of coil?

On fuel pressure a squirt out valve does not get the job done.

Check engine cranking pressure and let us know what engine.
4.3 or 5.7 you need over 60 lbs cold engine cranking to squirt injectors.
And some up to 64-65 lbs.

Will it fire with a shot of carb cleaner?

sorry about that, it is a 1997 with a 5.7 and 4l60e. it has good spark to number 1 cyl. thats the only on the was checked. it did not start with a shot of starting fluid. I can hear the fuel pump running from the drivers door, is that normal for you to hear the pump run and it not giving enough pressure. what about the regulator on the fuel injector, do the go out?

Always check for spark at more than one spark plug.
Even if you can hear fuel pump run run a fuel pressure check on it.
Many times pumps are low on pressure and still run.
Even a brand new airtex pump will do things like that.
You should have 65 lbs pressure key on and engine cranking pressure.
Check it and tell us how much pressure you have.
Go easy on starting fluid or you may blow dipstick threw hood.
Only use carb cleaner as starting aid.
Is the dist rotor stll pointing to no one cylinder top dead center compression stroke?
IS DIST ROTOR TURNING WHEN CRAKING ENGINE?

is does turn when cranking, i will have to check the pressure and let you know

Make sure it is pointed right to as in link.
Let us know what fuel pressure is.

this could be a security issue . this can cause your problem of sudden engine shutdown with all testing and DTC not showing a code .

then the MAF should be disconnected, then try to start. also the ECT maybe defective or wiring /connectors to it.

check the injector pulsing. possible injectors are not opening.

check the distributor bearing . if over 175,ooomi these distributors fail....
