It does sound like you initially get gas into intake from the cold start valve. I have never tried this, but perhaps try spraying in some starter fluid and see if that keeps engine running. If it does, then for some reason injectors are not getting gas or perhaps are not getting signal to fire.

Usual suspects are fuel pump, fuel pump relay, injectors, etc. Could be ground from ecu - easy enough to check.

Maybe try jumpering the fuel pump relay. That way, pump will stay on when you turn on ignition switch (it normally cuts off after a few seconds until ECU gets signal from trigger points to say engine is rotating) Then try again. If still no start, check fuel pressure in rail.

Good luck with it.
