Hello / Welcome @Funt1ka

Could be a number of issues but if its throwing a code (engine check light) pull the code from the OBD port & let us know what it is

I wanted a fake key I could use in the door lock. I had one cut at Ace Hardware. With the fake key in the ignition (I had to try it) the car starts and runs for about three seconds and then shuts off. So, maybe a problem with the security system.

When it does this is there a little green key symbol that flashes on dash? If yes, you have an immobilizer/security issue. Had similar happen when I swapped chassis and it ended up not being crank sensor and yes being immobilizer.
