It won't start with the ECT unplugged, as it will assume the engine is warm and won't give it enough fuel. It will start if it's a bad MAF sensor, and will even be driveable.

Bring a can of starter fluid and spray it in the intake, check for spark, etc.

The running rich points out a bad sensor to me rather than something physically wrong with the engine.
