If the engine tried to start, but died as soon as you released the key from the start position, then the problem is the TFI module. It has two circuits that permit the engine to run; one when the key is in the start position, and one in the run position. It is common for the run position circuit to fail first, creating the situation you described. It is possible that you have other issues as well, but your initial problem should be corrected by replacing the module.
