After my mechanic replaced timing belt and camshaft position sensor. My car starts right up and after 5 seconds turns itself off. Car runs great for exactly 5 seconds and then computer shuts off the car. Any suggestions?

Good morning,

Does it start right back up after it stalls?

Can you give it gas to keep it running?

Are there any codes in the system?
