    The tow truck brought it home. once I got home from work I went out to see if my son had done the relay thing correctly amd it was perfect. So I tried starting it and it started right up. It idled for a 30 seconds or so then since the tow truck put it in the driveway backwards, I decided to turn it around to put it in the garage. I pulled it forward then backward then turned it sideways in the driveway and it quite. It started back up and I backed it up a little bit then it quit. It did not want to start then.

    I went in the house for a second then came back out and tried it again. it started just for a second or so then quit.

    When it was running it ran fine and smooth. When it quit it was just smooth like it ran out of fuel.

    Thoughts?

    is the check engine light on?

    could try unplugging the maf, see if it runs, if so you need a new maf.
