    Cam postion sensor could be the cause. If it's unhooked you have a 1 in 6 chance the motor will start. However I've never seen one cause it to run badly like you mentioned.
    I drink..so consider that when reading my posts.

    There's no vacuum leaks that I can see.

    You'd have to have something like the EGR tube off (if not blocked) or the brake booster for that big of an issue.

    I'm going to replace the ICM harness tomorrow and see if that does anything.

    Just wondering, if a MAF sensor got wet, could it cause a no-start issue?

    i wouldn't think so...unplug it and see if the car runs...it'll run poor for a minute unplugged but will come out of it.
