When I try to start my car it starts and stalls right out. What could be wrong with it?

Hi Lee8,

It could be anything from a bad ignition switch to a faulty engine management syatem or clogged air passages.

If the dash lights do not come on when the engine stalled after starting, then it is caused by a bad ignition switch.
