My 86 camaro will start up and drive for a very short distance and then dies out. I was wondering what you think the problem is.

When it dies out, check for spark at the spark plugs. Possible ingnition module could be causing it. Whay engine does it have?

I would check for spark at the spark plug wires. Also if you are getting back fire in the intake or air cleaner could be a possible fuel pump.
