I started my car fine it took a second to idle up though. Shut the car off after only a few seconds. Car will now crank and crab and crank but not turn over. What's up with that?

Could you give a better description? How is it cranking but not turning over? Is the starter just whining?

Sure. It cranks like normal for about 10 minutes, until the battery started to die. Pluged in the trickle charger. Cranked even faster. Still would not turn over. Here's a tuner pro log. It shows injector pulse. Not sure what's wrong or what to look at.https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B8Rh5RY1COHWblFRSTJRQWlzS00/view?usp=sharing

cam angle sensor?
I was under the impression I wouldn't get idc pulse if that wasn't operating. Is it possible it flooded? Otherwise It likely has something to do with ecu code I was monkeying with. I'm going to try a clean bin and see if that helps anything.

Oh. I thought turn over meant under power of fuel not battery. Guess I've been using that wrong since... forever.
CTS reads 50F which was about right. IAT read 32F. So even if iits not working the small difference shouldn't have been the whole issue. That doesn't explain why it would start and then not start seconds after.
