My guess is that there is a leak in your intake piping or where you capped the IAC. Normally a leak would help raise idle, but since it is being sourced from the engine bay rather than being recorded by the MAF, there is extra air entering the engine that the ECU does not know about. If there is a big enough leak (i.e. a loose pipe coupler) the engine might start at first because it runs rich on cranking, but then it will stall because the mixture will be extra lean due to the excess air that the ECU does not compensate for.
Removing idle control shouldn't be a problem, as long as you don't use AC, brights, etc.
