Then I tried to started the engine but the engine can't stated ( die) I used the OBDII show P0340 I replaced the sensor can't start too I checked all the wiring and the voltages every thing looks fine.

The code is providing some direction, however, we need to verify if ,

we have spark available
do we have fuel available , remove one spark plug and see if it is wet or dry.

If wet,could be fuel question (quality) or no spark condition
If dry, no fuel condition
Which do you have?

Because I have found this to be a problem before,
It sounds crazy, but unplug the alternator and see if it makes any difference and starts.

I believe a compression test is the next course of action, so you know where you stand, can you do that?
