Car starts and dies after 10 seconds 200 1989

You need to replace the RPM sensor, water gets inside the sensor which rusts and swells to the point where you can not remove it.

Throttle position switch is either opened or closed so test it with an Ohm meter, see FAQ's for details.

Does the engine run with the AMM disconnected?
