Hi drewafrica,
From your description I gather the engine is still running when the dashlights comes on.
The final part seems to point to a faulty ignition switch. Crank and it starts but release the key it stalls. When it cannot start, check if the dash lights are all on when key is in IG 11 position after cranking.
