i hate to sound like DaveBen, but do you have access to a code reader? not the one at autozone, something more advanced?

DO NOT USE ETHER! just because you >THINK< its not the glowplugs does not mean they are not coming on. faulty sensor could tell the computer to tell them to glow,. add ether and you have a Wile-E-Coyote kind of deal going on. only use ether on things like grampas tractor that do NOT have glow plugs.

code reader will help get you to answer quicker.

why did you change icp and ipr?

Wait, it will start and run only when? I don't understand your issue...

Being 95 degrees out does NOT eliminate the glowplugs.
My advice would be to start by ohming them out..
