DON"T spray anymore either in it! You need to get a scanner and see what your ICP is while cranking. Also you can try unplugging the ICP sensor and see if it will start.

started fine this morning then wouldn't start after it was warm even after setting 2 hours . Feeling kinda dumb but i couldn't locate the icp. Also i was going to add i had a edge box on it when this all started but that was the first thing i removed when i started trouble shooting.

It is a grey plug on the passenger valve cover towards the front of the engine. I think your gonna need to put a scanner onthe truck to get anywhere if unplugging the ICP doesn't cause it to start.
