Update on diagnosis

Okay so car lost power while driving. Sparks plugs work.Got a new full pump read online it could be the reason for not starting up again. I was then told about spraying starting fluid into the filter to see if it’s a fuel issue Tried it didn’t work. thenTurns out my battery was dead got a new one and put starting fluid into the air filter component and it turned on. it started For about 3 seconds and then turns off but loses power. The lights are on but can’t drive so I turn it off. I was told it’s a sign of a fuel issue so what next to check? I want to at least get the car on to drive it to a mechanic
