This is actually a 2012+ forum, but what makes you believe you have no spark? Are there any codes at all? At a a minimum, if my plugs were "carmelized" by sugar I would have spent the $80 for new ones. If you put in new plugs, then it's hard to see how sugar could cause no spark. Sugar in the gas won't affects coil packs or wiring. The obvious suspect is still the fuel supply. I have never tried to clean an injector, nor do I know how you did it, but the clearances/tolerances are so close that I'd still suspect them. I do not know what normal fuel pressure is on your car, so I can't comment on the 60lbs.

And I'll also note that your post is little short on details. Like how you drained the tank and how you flushed the fuel system and with what.
