Does it shut off even if you give it gas? Do you have coolant? Need to let us know what you have done so far.

Is the coolant full? Did you bleed the system?

This doesn't have anything to do with why the car does not stay running, though. Are your plugs in good condition?

Check for an intake leak.

I have never heard of a car really dying if it starts up and you give it gas. Hmm. Well do you have gas ? May be a stupid question but then we could rule that out, lol.

Is the line to the coolant sensor (top of the rad) still plugged in?

Hell, to make sure it's not the radiator buzzer, just ground out the single wire plug that goes to the radiator, as for dieing, not sure there.
