5. Engine died in driveway; could not re-start
6. Checked for codes; but none because I hadn't driven far enough since changing battery
7. February - Re-soldered RCM board.
8. Car Started, revved up and idled great.
9. Ready for a test drive--NOT. Engine died in driveway.
10. March - Replaced fuel filter (Bosch)
11. Car started and idled fine, but died as soon as I used the accelerator.
12. Have not been able to start the car since
I'm pretty sure that any codes will not be affected by a change in battery.
Do you have any fuel pressure?
CPS and crankshaft position sensor can cause problems like this.
Is the check engine light on?

I guess it is possible the fuel pump has died, check for flow with a gauge or release the valve and see if any comes out.
How many miles on the car?
