Car starts and then quits after a couple seconds

86 olds cutlass cruiser wagon, tech 4 engine, will start and then quits after a second or two. If starter fluid is sprayed into throttle body it will continue to run, if gas pedal is pressed down while spraying in starter fluid fire will come out of various areas around throttle body or carberator, or whatever that thing is. This is one of those early fuel injection models. Thanks so much, this is the first time I have used your service, I am concerned about the payment process. I do have a paypal acct through ebay, so I can use that to tip you, but I would like to see how this whole process works first, thanks so much, have a great weekend. Tim
