Try doing a leak down test on it to start and make sure your getting proper fuel pressure.

Remove the pre-car O2 sensor and see if engine will rev-up any different. This will set the Check Engine Lite. If engine revs better, then likely have a plugged cat.

Regarding requiring starter fluid; do the leak down test as suggested, probably have a fuel system leak and could be the regulator in the intake.

^^ I agree. Definitely sounds like a fuel delivery problem. Just because parts are new, doesn't mean they're good, that's why we diagnose things Check fuel pressure and leakdown with a gauge. Ignition ON, engine OFF, fuel pump running, the pressure on your 1995 must be 55psi to 61psi. It must remain above 50psi for at least 10 minutes after the pump shuts off. If it fails one or both parts of the test, it tells us there's a fuel delivery problem that needs to be diagnosed. Post your results.
