Car starts then dies, theft light not on
Alright I have a 1996 GT, Car starts, runs for two to three seconds and then dies, if i give it gas it will rev up but still dies within the same time frame. I hot wired the fuel pump and car still dies. If i turn key off really fast and then back on when engine is still rolling it will run for another2-3 seconds.Engine runs smooth for the short period it runs. The theft light is not on, so i believe pats is working fine, but i'm also not sure if the car would even start at all if the security system was working, Please help

check to see if you blowed any fuses when u removed the remote start it could be that simple bro also check to make sure you rewired everything back as it should be

First question' did this only start occurring after you had removed the remote starter kit?
If so the removal of the unit is most likely the probable cause of your problem. Hopefully you can back track over what you did, maybe get a starter wiring diagram and do a comparison. Google the name of the remote starter kit see if you can find a wiring diagram.
Just some ideas

I actually bought this car as non running, car had no spark or fuel before I removed remote start system, and fixed a couple bad wires, I'm starting to think it has to do with the pats system, theft light doesn't come on but it acts just like the pats system is keeping it from running. Wondering if I have a dead circuit
