    hey, i am having a what seems to possibly be a big issue and i am trying to track it down rather quickly because I have to work at 7am. The car will start up run for about 5second and then just shut off. If I try and start it again it will do the same thing. It was running just fine all day and I went outside to do something and move my car and it started this. It is a 1998 Pontiac Grand Prix GTP 3.8L Supercharged... If anyone has any idea on what this could be I would greatly appreciate some input on this ASAP. Feel free to shoot me a text (860)919-7891, just reference this posting or leave a suggestion here I will be checking it periodically.

    Sounds like the security feature is stopping the car from running.

    Pay attention?

    I answer threads as I see them, half the crap that gets said in the chat box is by a bunch of yahoo's that think they understand what a car does.
