Yeah, it looks like either the aftermarket alarm or the aftermarket stereo may have shorted something out.

The aftermarket alarm actually had a splice to the passenger side wire on the wiring clip that goes to the coil pack. There was also a splice on one of the main wiring harness wires....a white with a blue stripe. There was also a cut/damaged wire on the IAC clip.

We checked the compression, spark, plugs/wires and finally worked our way into the ECU. The chip was the problem.

Alan pulled out the chip and it started up. It only runs on the cold/low program.

Once Rob gets a new chip........problem solved.
