Exclamation wont stay running got fuel got spark

Have a 92 accord recently ran out of gas and a week later bogged out while driving and no more driving . It would still start but as soon as I put it in drive or reverse and hit the gas it would cut off . So I had the fuel filter changed the tps changed and then another throttle body complete cleaned the fuel injectors and the egr valve . It will start and is a lot better than before sound wise but just won't stay on now . Please help I checked the codes with the 2 wire connector near ecu(ecm) and got a 0 which says ecu . From there I looked at a site and it fits into a possibility of a bad ground for the ecu besides that I think its possible its the iacv or the fitv . What's your take on this please help I need to get it running and staying running and driving

From your description, I would suspect a failed ignition keyswitch assy. When engine cuts off, does the Alt and Check Engine Light come on or stay Off? If it stays off, the keyswitch assy is highly likely.

good luck

You said that you got a code 0 on the ECU. What happened when you shorted that connector and turned the key to the II position?

Can you get the car to stall out by shaking the key while the engine is running?
