Are you getting spark when it's cranking?

Move to the ICM or ohm out the coils to make sure they are not bad.

Also check the wire that feeds the crank sensor to the ICM... that may have been damaged somehow.

Problems solved. The starting problem (see post 1) was the ignition switch (http://www.autozone.com/autozone/parts/ ... zl6nZ9n859) and the second problem was the ICM. All is good now. Thanks for the input.
