Unhappy Vehicle starting problems please help?

Hi,

My 1992 sc400 is giving me some problems. My vehicle starts and then cuts out. The engine never keeps running. It just starts stays on for a about 3 seconds and cuts right off. Have anyone ever experience this? Any ideas? Any troubleshooting techniques would be greatly appreciated. I can't take it to a dealer as they are none in my area. thanx guys.

Default Starting up problems

Sounds like a typical problem with the fuel pump switching mode power supply. You can by-pass it to test and get the car going.
