If the car turns over but won't start even with the use of starting fluid, it could be a problem with the fuel system or a malfunctioning component.
Here are a few things you can try:

Check the fuel pump. The fuel pump is responsible for delivering fuel to the engine. If the fuel pump is not functioning properly, it can cause starting problems. You can check the fuel pump by listening for a humming noise when the key is turned to the "on" position. If you don't hear a humming noise, it could indicate a problem with the fuel pump.
Check the fuel filter. The fuel filter is responsible for removing contaminants from the fuel. If the fuel filter is clogged, it can cause starting problems. You can check the fuel filter by inspecting it for any visible damage or debris.
Check the fuel pressure. The fuel pressure should be within a certain range for the engine to start. If the fuel pressure is too low, it can cause starting problems. You can check the fuel pressure by using a fuel pressure gauge.
Check the spark plugs. The spark plugs are responsible for igniting the fuel in the engine. If the spark plugs are fouled or not functioning properly, it can cause starting problems. You can check the spark plugs by inspecting them for any visible damage or wear.
If you are unable to identify the source of the problem or if the issue persists after checking these components, I recommend having a mechanic diagnose and repair the issue to ensure that the problem is properly addressed and the vehicle is safe to drive.

I have the same problem with a 2015 Accord LX 270K miles. Parked it Saturday night Sunday morning no start. Changed plugs thought perhaps it was spark issue. Pugs were nasty but car still not diagnosed proper yet. Turns over fine. Acts like its firing and gonna run and thats' it. Its done as quick as it started.
What else can I look at?

Car wouldn't start until I added engine oil.

So after work I tried to start my car and it would turn over but not start. I tried multiple times with no luck. My brother in law ended up coming to help me. I told him it could be low on oil. So he added a little oil and it almost started. So he added a little more oil and it started right up. So I drove it home. My Dad checked the oil after I got home and he said it is overfilled with oil. Which doesn't make sense because it sounds good and is running good. Would this be a good indication that the sensor that checks the oil level is bad? Any suggestions are appreciated. I had recently replaced the radiator. Changed the oil, filter, air filter, atf and the battery is great.
