checked all the fuses in both panels and under the hood, checked the battery and the connections, switched the starter, checked the key. Car started fine last time I drove it. I can jump it at the starter but it won't stay running. Have no idea what to check next. Thank you for your time

Clean out the idle air control valve and test the throttle position and manifold absolute pressure sensors.
