Is the security light flashing when this happens?

steve; Don't pour gas into the air cleaner. Very dangerous. After answering HT's question, we can go from there.

It's acting like the security system is kicking in but the light should be flashing if that were the case. You probably want to verify fuel pressure first and make sure that's in spec. The spec is 41 to 47 PSI. If fuel pressure is good you can try the Passlock relearn below but since the light is not flashing, I wouldn't get my hopes up on that.
PASSLOCK REPROGRAMMING AUTO LEARN
IMPORTANT: Due to component variability, the vehicle theft deterrent (VTD) system must have the learn procedure performed regardless, if the vehicle starts on the first ignition cycle after a VTD repair.
You must perform a theft relearn procedure if any of the following components have been replaced: - Passlock Sensor
- Instrument Panel Cluster (IPC)
- Powertrain control module (PCM) The above modules, with the exception for the Passlock Sensor must also be programmed with each module's own vehicle configuration.
AUTO LEARN
Time required, approximately 10 minutes: - Insure that the battery is fully charged.
- Use the scan tool in order to clear the DTCs.
- Turn the ignition switch from the OFF position to the CRANK position attempting to start the vehicle. The vehicle will start and then stall.
- Leave the ignition switch in the ON position while observing the security indicator.
- When the security indicator turns off, which can take up to 10 minutes, turn the ignition switch off. Wait 10 seconds.
- The BCM and the PCM will learn the new code on the next start attempt.

You must have a problem with that security light too. It should have been flashing.

you are correct about that. it should at least light up as key is turned to run before starting. i belive in my heart that it has been unplugged or removed due to prior theft.
