If the engine briefly runs when you spray starting fluid into the intake you are obviously getting spark, so it is most likely a fuel delivery problem. See the site FAQ for details on troubleshooting a no-start condition.
Hi we put in new fuel pump and filter , checked 2 injectors there ok , do you think crank sensor could prevent it from starting , an old mechanic told me it could
Why don't you get it scanned for codes to find out what is really wrong instead of wasting your time and money just guessing?
I did no codes
I had to different mobile mechanics come out trying to read codes and figure out what's going on they both stop showing up

Yes, of course it can. However in that case there would be no spark so you the engine would not have tried to start when you used starting fluid.
A test for the crank sensor is to see if you get an RPM reading on a scan tool while cranking. If there's no reading the crank sensor is bad.
