Why won't my car start?

What is your question?

Car wont start with just the turn of the key like it should BUT if I spray starting fluid in the throttle body and then turn the key it'll start right away and stay on and be driveable.

2- Suspects ... 1- Coolant temp *SENSOR*...... 2- Cold start valve or its circuits (IF equipped).. I can't remember and don't have access to Alldata here... Maybe try google images for picture of cold start valve, mounted on intake plenum.

Thanks for ur input. I just recently replaced the Coolant Temp SEnsor. I'll check what you mentioned. Also I did my OBD test(jumper wire) and got codes 22, 24 and 31. I know one of em is the CTS but for the other 2 idk where to start
