It starts and runs for 5 seconds and than stops

 

Check your vacuum lines.
Check your wire connectors.

 

We are going to need some more detailed info on the problem.

 

I checked all vaccum lines and cleaned all ground conncection. I still had the same problem. So I put everything back together (had the air clearner off and MAF sensor unplugged) and it started but when ever I let off the accelator keeping the engine at about 3000 RPM's the check engine light came on. When I accelarated again it went off, if I eased off very gently it seemed ok. I'm now looking into the TSP? What do you think? From what the owner says it's an intermittent problem!
