Starts then dies

pssssshhhhhhtt
My car died on the way to work today. 97 GTP

It will start up and idle fine for five seconds then just cut off, even if I rev it up. Never had this problem before.

I tried running without the maf plugged in and it does the same thing.

Any ideas guys?
 


Is the security light flashing? Tried another key in it? Other than that maybe try the fuel relay trick and put the pump into high-speed mode and see if it stays running then.

its a resistor, they fail. most who bend the tab on the relay run it that way forever. or you can replace the resistor. your call.
