30 lbs is no good. You have a bad cylinder.
Put your old pcm back, used ones never work.

Where did you check for spark?

It should start by what you are saying. It is difficult to see if the pcm is grounding the injectors because of the location of the injectors. A shop with a scan tool and verify if they are being triggered to supply fuel.

There are tests for the injectors that can be performed with the scan tool.
