If the engine fires off with starting fluid that means you spark. Absolutely no reason to install a new Ignition Control Module (ICM) IMHO.

Does the fuel pump energize for 1-2 seconds when cycling the key from Off to Run?

1992 crank no start

Engine does start. Seems to want too. If u spray starter fluid in throttle body after a while it seems to try to start for a few seconds but still doesn't.

Have you checked for spark? Have you checked compression? Either the ignition system is at fault, or it has jumped time, is my opinion.

More concise question: Do they energize then shutoff after 1-2 seconds?

They should.....
