My car won't run for more then 5 sec. When I first noticed it. It would almost seem like the car was flooded. I'd shut the key off and wait a min, then it'd fire right up. It did it maybe 5-10 times. maybe only every 5th time i'd start it. so now it won't run. It's like something just cut's the motor after a few sec. I started with the simple stuff first. Fuel filter, plugs, wire's, cap, rotor, Nothing. Then we thought maybe the timing. We ripped it all apart, and it was perfect.. There is spark. We pulled the gas line off at the fuel rail and there is enough presure that we couldn't hold it back with our thumb. I pulled the ECU out. None of the caps were leaky. It didn't have any bad smell at all. It really looked brand new. I ordered another one anyway. It won't be here for about 4 days but i really think i wasted my money on that too. PLEASE any suggestions? thanks a lot for the time you put in your webpage. any help would be greatly appreciated

I don't know about evo's but my wifes jeep did that...it was the factory anti-theft system. There was a malfunction that didn't allow it to disarm so it would kill the engine after 5 seconds. I believe it was the chip in the key i think...just a thought. If it came with an anti-theft maybee check it out..

oh, sorry. I forgot to mention it is a 94 Eclipse. 1.8 5spd. no extra's. Thanks for the advice but my car don't have any sort of alarm. I really think it is a sensor. I just don't know where to start checking them or even know what does what.
