    would that be an easy fix? I'm getting a payday advance to get it running ASAP and pay the back fees

    unless this is going to replace whatever you were driving to and from work I would wait until payday to do those things.
    those payday loans are expensive. my sister is just about living on those things because she has borrowed most of her pay check each month and by the time she pays it back she needs to borrow again.

    sounds like the ignition switch if the seller started the car by the cylinoid
