2003 F250 No Hot Start Possible Reasons Has Trouble Code

OK Fellas,
I have a 2003 Super Duty 6.0. The trouble started almost all at once. It started fine, then I drove it for a while and on hot start, it cranked for a long time before starting. This went on for a few days, then today it wouldn't restart even when cool after not being driven for hours. I have a code P2285 and code P2285 P that has been on for a month or so. I know that the P2285 is the ICP. I don't know and can't find out what the "P" is at the end of the code. Anyways, I want to repair it myself. I have experience doing pretty major repairs, so it doesn't scare me. The problem is I am new to the diesel world. So come one and come all with possible scenarios and I will Go right down the list. Thank you to everyone in advance, I really appreciate the help. On a side note I just sold my 1998 expedition that I owned since new, now this....

Doo you have gauges our a way to read live data? Try to unplug the icp sensor and see if it starts. With the icp unplugged the pcm gets a default value if your hpo sys is working and you haven't other problems it may start. But you really need a scangauge our torque pro app anything to see values. How many miles? Had it been running worse other than the no start?

I do NOT have the gauges or a way to read live data. If the truck sits for hours, it fires right up, last night I drove it home, turned it off and immediately tried to restart it and I cranked it for probably 30-40 seconds straight and it finally fires. It does seem that it is just trying to build up pressure. 119,00 miles. Are the scangauge or torque pro reasonable to purchase for a possible one time use? I'm willing to do it myself. I am getting an ICP Code. Thanks for your help

Gaurenteed it will be a more then one time use--actually should be used every time it's driven.

If you have an android device the torque pro app is $5. And a elm blue tooth obd2 adapt i r can be haf for under$20 on Amazon or eBay.
