I have a 2004 Chevy Cavalier. My problem is the engine literally shakes on its mounts when I star it. Within 3 to 5 seconds the motor shuts down. Whats wrong?

If it shakes really bad, it sounds like a bad misfire or it isn't getting enough fuel. Check for tune up and fuel pressure. Finally, if it is shaking really bad, check for a broken motor mount.
