If an engine has spark, but won't even fire a little with starting fluid, chances are it's flooded, maybe from a sensor (cylinder head temp?) being off and giving the engine way too much fuel.

Might want to try starting it with the accelerator pressed to the floor, but if it does fire I'd shut it off - running an engine with way too much fuel can wash the cylinders and do some quick damage.

HTH,
