car starts and die...part 2..need help ASAP

well my car died in the middle of the road today…the car will start but will turn off in a ocuple of seconds. right now my dad suspect it be the fuel system,ie, injectors or maybe fuel pump. but i’m suspecting it be a bad ignition key. because the lights on the guages nor the clock will come on in the acc?(or that one postion after it) position. so wut do u guys think?
also how do i get to the ignition key so i can check out if the wiring is loose or nething.
thanks,
john

if the lights dont come on…first check the alternator.
i had the same problem…it could be many things (that i have experienced anyway): the igniter, distributer, fuel system.

i’m not an expert. i just wanna help, cuz i had similar problems too

oh…those r fine the battery works and everything.it gives power

I don’t know how to get to the ignition switch, but i’m 99,9% sure that is your problem… possibly simply a bad connection…
