Rat ate my ignition wire to the coil I fixed it but engine hesitates and stalls but will act normal when I kept the key on the spring position I repaired the wires now the engine starts very poorly and dies in few seconds, when I kept ignition key on the starter position (spring) it ran normal, I will pay you if you help me fix my car, I am senior retired.
Thank you.

Check your repair. It sounds like there is too much resistance in it.

Do this power the coil positive terminal from the battery positive post with same size wire and see what happens if it continues to run-double check the wire from the coil positive to the ignition switch, also check the EFI relay and the circuit opening relay

Put ignition switch on run position-do you hear the fuel pump?
