wont start

ok guys posting for a friend. hes got an 92 yota 22re. befor he started the project everything started just fine. now that hes done it wont start. hes getting fuel, and fire, it starts just fine when you spray starting fluid in it but if you quit spraying then it dies. any ideas on what it could be? thanks guys

You sure "he's getting fuel" "it starts fine when you spray starting fluid in it but if you quit spraying then it dies", sounds like possibly the only fuel its getting is the starting fluid to me.

he says its getting fuel but i personally thought the same thing. im going to look at it today. thanks nook
