Try turning the key on, engine not running for 15 minutes, then turn it off and restart in 10 seconds, this is a relearn procedure for the vats.

Re: 97 cutlass security light runs for a few then dies
the security light comes on when the smart chip in the key is messed up...my security light came on during a long trip but shut off a few minutes after. it shouldn't mess with the car or make it run differently. Maybe replace the key? I know it costs a lot but if you dont wanna drive with the security light on then that would be your best bet.
