Evo 8 will not start

First time to post here and kind of new to tuning some of the terms lol, however i got an 03 evo 8.

Its got EMS
I had a guy whos tunes before came over and we went over some things because it was running weird.

Motor was build and only had about 1k miles on it
Drove it a bit home and injector got clogged from some old e85 sitting along time
After cleaned and bench tested put em in starts up fine.

Was idling and misfiring rough until we messed with the idle
Was running alright except kind of wanted to die at stop signs sometimes.
Well coming down one road it just died at the end of the road and has not started since.
Cranks for awhile but never turns over.

Nothing was messed with the tune since it was driving and when it died but i feel like something still needs to be adjusted.
Setup:
Built evo 8 block.
Evo 7 head fully built on Cos 272s
Intake mani and Q45 were custom fitted and has no IAC ( but was idling alright before)
COP setup and e85
Fuel pump still primes fine
PTE 6765 T4
2150 Injectors

Was hoping for some insight or maybe some one with similiar setup could send me a map from what they have so i can compare the data.

Any input is appreciated thank you.

Have you checked:
Compression
Fuel
Spark
These should be the first steps to figure out what is going on. Check these and post back the results.

Crank or Cam angle sensor failed or bad.


Also when you are hooked to your laptop, check for stat sync = on or true


if stat sync does not go on/true then your car will not start and you have an issue somewhere.

Fuel Pressure

So the fuel pressure was super low.
It was at around 10psi

Replaced the walbro in tank and now hits about 20 ish.
Still not enough enough pressure
But for some reason it looks like the guy i got it from has walbro in tank, and 2 inlince bosch 044s. So I may be removing them or just run one and swap a new one in and hopefully get more pressure.

E85 in the tank had been sitting for quite a few months so it probably wore on everything using up the rest of that gas.
