The 3.8 series 2 engine in my 98 firebird doesnt turn over with the key but can be jumped at the starter.it will only run for a few seconds then die when i start it this way.
Sounds like it needs an ignition switch. the reason it dies after a few seconds after jumping the starter is bc the security system from gm thinks you're stealing the car so it kills the fire. the security system goes thru the key so if the switch is bad, it wont run no matter how you try to crank it
