For the record, I finally gave up on fixing this myself and had the car towed to a garage. The mechanic worked on it for a week and finally got it to run by pouring gas in it. The car let out a massive backfire, lots of black smoke and it has run fine ever since. The mechanic has no idea of what was causing it, other than perhaps something got stuck "down there".
