1994 Chrysler Lebaron turns over, but won't start.
I have a 1994 Chrysler LeBaron V6 3.0L. I took it apart to replace some parts and now it won't start. The engine turns over just fine, but won't pop. It sounds like it really wants to and every now and then it will pop a little bit but won't run. I replaced the radiator, water pump, water tube, supply/return fuel hoses, intake manifold gaskets, plenum gaskets, distributer cap, rotor, and coil/plug lines. I cleaned everything I came across while taking it apart and now it is back together. I confirmed that the timing is correct. When the key is turned to on, fuel flows out of the supply line so I know I am getting fuel, but it stops after a second or two so I'm not sure if the engine actually has to be running/turning over for a constant flow. I listened to each injector and heard clicking so I know they are working. All my vacuum lines and electrical connectors are attached. I replaced my fuel pump and filter about a year ago and the fuel pump fuse and relay are both good. My car WAS running before I took it apart, so I don't see how something could have just went bad, like a sensor or relay. After turning it over I pulled the plugs and only numbers 3 and 6 were wet (barely), the rest were dry. Any ideas?

Yes I know. The dist. rotor lines up correctly when at TDC
OK, good. Now what I have seen MANY times on these older PCMs, is when the battery is disconnected for loooong periods of time, the PCM will go into theft mode when it gets woke up. It turns the fuel off. You need someone with a DRB to look at it for you. See if the fuel is off.
