1991 Buick Ragal Custom 3.1 starts, then stalls immediately.

You need the exhaust converter so the O2 sensor can
work properly

It sounds as though the converter is blocked,as well
as the fuel trim, if that is correct term for an OBD1 System,
is not able to report back the oxygen in the failed converter

So the ecm can not provide the correct fuel mixture by
pulsing the injectors

I would also expect the timing chain to have a lot of slop
& possibly be off a couple teeth, from worm plastic gear
on cam

Turns over and won't start, replaced fuel filter and just turns over and almost fires

Almost fires? Do you mean it does fire some, that you know the plugs are getting spark? If so, then you probably need to have your fuel pressure tested to see if pump is working properly. Can you hear the pump buzz on briefly when you turn key to on? It should come on for a couple of seconds to pressurize the lines. If you don't hear it, then your pump may be bad, or something not turning pump on. Good luck.

1990 Buick Century Custom 4-Dr Sedan 3300 V6. New motor, fuel pump, fuel filter, alternator and starter. Turns over, though it won't fire.

Check your fuel pressure at the schraeder valve that is on the fuel rail. If you have fuel pressure, check for spark.If no spark, then ignition diagnosis is needed.If no fuel pressure, check for diconnected, or pinched wires, as this can easily happen during an engine swap.

My 96 regal custom,service engine soon light is flashing.it showed that number 2 cylinder was misfiring,so i replaced the plugs,wirers and that coil.but to no avail.

Before I went too much further throwing parts at it, I'd have fuel pressure tested. Not uncommon for low fuel pressure to starve a cylinder or 2 and have a misfire code come up. Should only take mechanic about 5-10 minutes to verify low or o.k. , then you can eliminate that possibility.

1991 Buick regal will not start there is spark

Then it has to be fuel, compression, or air. Check for fuel pressure first, if it has fuel pressure check for compression, must have a minimum of 100 pounds to run. Last check for air supply being restricted(very very very rare). if it has all of these and sprk it has to run as long as its timed right which is impossible to get out of time on a fuel injected engine like this unless someone mixed the plug wires up on the coil pack at which point it will be back firing out the intake and exhaust.

No start

if it runs on starting fluid its a fuel problem.. check fuel pressure even if its a couple of pounds off, the vehicle will not run. but using starting fluid may give you the extra poundage you need to make it run . also check vacuum hose at pressure regulator on fuel rail
