My oldsmobile 97 achieva sl wont start. My friend looked at it and says that it has something to do with security or that something in the computer wont bypass and is cutting of the engine. I know its not the battery because the lights and radio all work perfectly fine. The tank is full of gass. The oil is good. If it helps any it just cut off at a 4 way stop on my way home it seemed to work perfectly fine up until I got to the stop I didn't even notice it until I stepped on the gas and it didn't move.
My friend says the engine will turn over (sorry Im not clear on what that means) because sometimes the engine will begin to run but it seems to shake and just doesn't feel right and then cuts off. The check engine, Battery, Oil, and Security lights all come on.
Does anyone have any ideas as what it might be and what it would cost for repairs. Thank you for your time.

It turned out there wasn't enough pressure for fuel so the mechanic said he would have to replace the fuel assembly. For parts and labor he is asking for about $560.
