So your saying that the starter engages and the car runs but only for a couple of seconds or the starter starts for a couple of seconds ? Make sure that you do not have feedback on the brake wire and also test your ground to ensure a proper, solid ground. I have seen systems where everything was wired properly but no start and I checked the ground and that was the problem.
