Was just reading through those SEVEN threads (because I am a helpful but abrasive guy) and noted you can't even get the car to try starting with starting fluid, in which case I would guess you have no spark. Someone else already mentioned this, but I'd check the cap and rotor and also make sure the bracket that the rotor mounts too isn't broken. I've seen this before on 103 engines. This engine IS entirely capable of running without the control unit even INSTALLED, so stop chasing the codes down. It might run like crap, but it WILL run even without a control unit, this is not being caused by a "trouble code". If you has spark, and the timing was remotely close, you will have an engine at least "trying" to start.
