Hi all, well my situation is your turn on the car and initially it will start up and run ok, but will most likely die within about 10 seconds. Then if you start it up it fires but starts dying and then you give it a little gas and it dies. It does have gas in the tank. Any ideas?

You need to check for lose of fuel or spark when it does it.
Watch fuel pressure and spacheck and watch spark when it does it.
Any codes or check engine lights?
