Jim,

Don't understand this ... when you move the key from the start position the 
engine would quit turning over.  Are you 
saying that's when it starts?

My SWAG is battery--even though it turns the engine over the voltage drop from 
driving the starter may weaken the 
spark.  How old is your battery?
