1995 Buick Regal Engine Size unknown Two Wheel Drive Automatic? Miles

The security light on the dash came on, to coincide with the vehicle not starting. We replaced the battery, got a new key, etc. Light is still on, but at least the vehicle starts. But it dies immediately. It has a new fuel pump, fuel filter, etc. We aren't quite sure what to do next. The car was donated to a needy family, and we are trying to help them out. Thanks.

The ignition cylinder needs to be replaced. This is very common. There is 2 tiny wires on the cylinder that move every time you turn the key and over time one of the wires breaks causing car to start and stall repeatedly. Hope this helps
