Nightmare problems with 97 gtp someone PLEASE give me advice/suggestions!

I bought a 97 Grand Prix Gtp years ago from a private seller who apparently either had a remote starter / alarm put onto the car or did it him self. When I bought the car I had the remote to the car and the main car key however I lost both. I had a spare key that I had made at ace hardware and the spare key worked for awhile and then one day it wouldn't start the car. When I would put the key in the ignition and try to start the car it wouldn't start and the alarm would go off. I then replaced the ignition switch thinking that was the issue due to only having the spare key however that was not the issue. I then took off the floor dash under the steering column and discovered the previous owner had a avistart remote start / Alarm on the car. On the drivers side along the door panel he had some red switch which I'm guessing was the valet switch however this broke off so I cant manually disable the remote starter / alarm. The car does not start with the spare key however when I unplug the battery cables and plug them back in the remote starter kicks in and the car runs for a couple mins and dies back out but I cant get it to stay running. Any suggestions?
 


two thoughts try to by pass that switch or remove the alarm and patch the wires back together, you know blue to blue etc
 
it runs and dies? the 97 didnt have any security. Could be fuel pump resistor. lets the car start and then dies
