My car will crank up for about 5 seconds then the car will die. If I leave battery cables off for day or two the car will crank up fine but die after being driven. It doesn't die or hesitate while driving. I have replace the ignition switch and also check the alternator

Seems like the idling speed is too low. Have the throttle body and IAC cleaned and retest.
