If you have the money, that's all well and good. Eventually, you'll probably hit the right part...... But, that gets expensive in a hurry.

That's starting to sound like a bad ECM.

Drover for a while, died again, and then wouldn't start?

Trouble is, you tried another PCM, and still had the same issue......

Remind me, what's missing when it won't start?
