I just replaced the timing belt on my 95 GST , I tried starting it and it runs for 5 seconds and dies? So, I tried disconnecting the battery to possibly reset ecm and it started and ran smooth, idled ok, and revved up fine. Ran it for maybe 15 minutes shut it off and now it's back to start and die again? Checked for spark ,no spark on #1 & #4 . I'm leaning towards a bad CAS? Tried reseting ecm again but just starts and dies. Any thoughts before I throw a CAS at it? Thanks.
 
si, la coche no funciono cuando el maf no esta aqui
(yes, the car doesnt funtion when the maf isnt there)
 
Yeah, my bad I meant your Mass Air Flow Sensor. Also go back and check all your connections. Then check for blown fuses. Then start checking to see if you have faulty sensors, i.e. ohm check them via manufacture specs. Start small, then work your way up. :thumb:
Good Luck
