Default OT '96 Saturn DOHC won't start
wrote in :

The OP said that when starting fluid was used it backfired out the
throttle body. In my experience as a shadetree mechanic when I
experienced backfire it was either an intake valve or valves that
didn't seal, for whatever reason, or the timing was off so that the
spark occurred when the intake valve was open. What other conditions
can cause backfiring on a fuel injected engine?

Faulty crankshaft position sensor that causes the PCM to think the crank is someplace it's not?
