Why do I have to start my truck with starting fluid?

What sensors can cause a car not to start?

A bad Crankshaft Position sensor is a common cause of no starts. The signal from this sensor goes to the PCM or ignition module that switches the ignition coil(s) on and off. If you have an RPM signal, a bad ignition module or PCM may not be switching the coil(s) on and off.

Why do I have to spray starter fluid into carburetor?

This could be leaky fuel injector seals, a failing fuel pump, or a bad fuel cap (as silly as it sounds). The other culprit could be an internal vacuum leak caused by a stuck-open EVAP purge valve. Both of these conditions would set trouble codes, and the check engine light should be on.
