This sounds maybe like the K40 relay (possibly?). Do the red and green lights on the mirror flash at any time when you're trying to start the car?
No lights flashing. What is the K40 relay?

If I manually move the fuel rack forward when cranking I get fuel shooting out of the IP so I can assume the fuel supply is fine and need to troubleshoot the ECU or other control stuff.. How do I do that? Since it moves forward and back when you turn the key to start I would tend to think the IP is good. Is there any engine safety protections that would make the ECU shut off the fuel. I was getting a low oil light (oil level was fine) coming on. I think it was because the rubber cover to the oil sensor was falling apart and full of oil/fuel.

Thanks so much for the help
