Pald out the olds intreg pump and got a $300.00 new pump got it in the car went to start it it runs for 2 seconds then dies that's when i reset the ECM by unpluging the battery for 3 hrs. and tap the - cabole and let it sit for 5 min then it will start right up then yesterday my dad tock it out for work it ran good drove it all day and it was 27 F out side when he was coming home from work it was 15 F and the car dies on the hyway so we had to tow it home agen right now i'm resetting the ECM and at 2:40 to day i will see if it will start back up

#1. You should go wash your mouth out with soap, it was embarrassing to watch that video with my family in the room.

#2. Are you 100% sure the fuel pump is running during the no start conditions? You might want to try jumpering the fuel pump relay to see if that fixes it.

#3. What is your fuel pressure at the rail?

I am having a very hard time understanding anything you are saying here, please use correct spelling and punctuation so it is able to be read and understood. All I can really understand so far is that the car runs but stalls quickly and I think the pump has been replaced, everything else I have no idea.

Also something about a key chip?
