When you were cranking it over, did the ICP psi stay pretty much steady, or did it vary? If it stayed completely steady, it may not be an accurate value. Did it kind of rise to 2300, or did it crank a while and suddenly jump? Is there a check engine light on? What are you using to monitor? I have no idea what ICP raw is . . .

It goes up and down around that. It goes up pretty quick. Raw signal.

I don't know, either, but it seems to be coming from Forscan when I've seen it posted

Interesting. I'm not familiar with it, though. Doesn't mean anything, just not sure what to do with it

Well I ordered a cps from clay. The other option is there is still air in the system. I did drive it about 50 miles.

Well, I guess we can assume the reading is good, but it would be nice to confirm it with the ICP voltage reading. It's blowing white smoke while cranking, so there's at least some fuel being injected. I guess it's back to the basics. Have you checked the glow plug relay with a voltmeter? If you put the leads on the two large posts, you should read battery voltage with the key off, and close to zero volts with the key on and the relay commanded on by the PCM. It could just be a coincidence that something else went bad at the same time you did the other work.

U might check glow plug relay

Check glow plug relay. Just a drop of one volt across the large posts can cause a hard cold start. They just go bad some times.
