Thanks, what about the deoexit d5, where can I find it?

Oddly enough, this morning I turned the key to #2 and let it sit for 5 seconds or so, then started it. No problem! This might support the ICV contacts, if there's too much resistance and it's responding slowly. Where can I get stabilant 22, or are there suitable alternatives?

Hey have you checked fuel pressure. Maybe you lose fuel pressure and by leaving the key on position 2 it primes the lines, just a thought.

I am almost positive this is not the problem but today I was talking to a guy about werid problems why cars wouldnt start and he had mentioned a plastic baggy in the fuel tank, pump sucks it up, car dies, restart, pump sucks it up, dies... lol sorry but thats just a little info, im not saying take apart your gas tank or nothin :P
GL on your problem man

Though I'm sure the stuff that Bill R recomends is better, I'm bad about planning ahead. This weekend I cleaned off the male ends of the ICV contacts with emery cloth, and after they were nice and shiny coated them with dialectic grease. Two cold starts, and no more problems. I cranked it immediately after turning the key and it still starts great. Thanks guys!
