3.) Could bad gas cause this?
4.) Could it be the starter?
5.) Could it be a sensor?
6.) The distributor cap?
7.) Some secret "lock the motor up" security feature?

Help

1. possibly but they may be right
2. could be, but not likely
3. no, I really really doubt it
4. not likely
5. possibly
6. There is not one on your car
7. no
