Make sure your oil is full and is not to old and thinned out. This can cause similar problems. Also check fuel pressure. Looks like you had another thread going about the icp. I think your next step would be the ipr. What codes were you reading and what scan tool are you using?

I would definitively change out your oil. Address the cps issue before changing out anything else. Your tach should be moving up to about 100-200 rpm's while cranking. It is not uncommon to get a bad cps. You could also have a wiring issue with the cps wires.
