I had similar problem. It would start and die after a few seconds. It was the MAF sensor

What is the history of the car? Did this problem start after an engine swap? Details...

Have you verified fuel and spark? What is the condition of the spark plugs? Big crack in the TID? It's not flooded, is it?
