The fact that you can keep it running with starter fluid says that the problem IS ignition. That spray probably contains ether and does not need a spark to ignite (gas does). Have you checked for spark at the plugs?
Possible cause is the ignition amp mounted on drivers side fender. This modules supplies pulses for spark to the coil. There is info on this in the FAQ section. Not sure what your referenece is traction control about. Your English is fine.
