Alright. Got the codes. Now we are talking.The Aurora is not a beast to throw parts at. Save your money! Omitting the O2 sensor code for now(it needs changed or wiring inspected). Now p0201, p0204, p0206, p0207... sounds like your car is running on 4 cylinders. So, four injectors failing all at once? Not likely... not impossible. I suspect a wiring issue or connector seating issue. Will take a look at the FSM later.
Actually on second thought check the injector fuses!!! Like yesterday haha.

ok i didnt know that box was there but all fuses are a-okay i tried the honda trick Iv learned and that is to turn them around some reason this works in my civic but I do have to swap out my plugs they are done for my buddy hook them up to his contraption and none of them gave off a spark seenig as how his new ones sparked perfect so il do that and see if that works as well ( my real question is) can the dis. cap be moved without taking every thing off of it

You are certain the fuel injector fuses are fine? INJ1 and INJ2 fuse in the IP fuse block? The service manual states that if P0201, P0204, P0206 and P0207 are all the set and the fuse is not blown you need to disconnect the injector harness and measure voltage to ground at terminal 'N'.

... but i cant get to the back 4 yet You have to pull the coil packs off the valve cover (4 bolts) and probably the devices above them on the firewall.

What is your fuel pressure like? I watched your video on youtube, and it sounds to me like a couple of these cars I worked on that have bad fuel pumps. They idle ok, but as soon as you try to give them gas, they die.

What is your fuel pressure? Did you get all new plugs and wires? Do you have a voltmeter you can ohm the coil packs with? Have you changed the fuel filter? Exhaust usually comes off pretty easy, 30 minutes, if you suspect cat, remove exhaust and drive it.

When my 96' did that I found a couple of bad coil packs, opening in wires @ the pigtails for the crankshaft position sensors and a dirty throttle body, iac sensor and mass airflow sensor. I replaced coil packs, repaired wiring along with new pigtails, replaced senors including O2 sensors, cleaned iac sensor throttle body w/new gasket and cleaned mass airflow sensor with brake cleaner reset codes, now no service engine light and high revs with out stall.
