Could be several things. The first thing I would check is the spart ignition. One way to check to see if you are getting proper spart is to take one spark plug wire off, insert a philips screw driver in the spark plug wire end and hold it about a quarter inch from any metal part of the engine. Have someone turn the engine over and watch for a spark from the screwdriver to the engine. Don't touch the metal part of the screw driver, the spark will pop you pretty good. There shoud be a big sharp spark, if not you may have a bad coil in the ignitions system.

Will my 1999 Oldsmobile 88 run if I disconnect the theft deterrent module. I'm trying to solve a problem with my car, sometimes, shutting off after I first start it up and I'm wondering if I bypass...

No. The theft deterrent module creates a signal that allows the starter to start. Without this signal the car will not start. There is a way to bypass the system and replicate that signal. Look at this link under "permanent fix". This is your best complete fix. http://vatspasslockpasskeysecurityhelp.yolasite.com/

I have an 328i if let idle it runs ruff

The BMW 328i
Firstly clean the air filter as it seems that the engine is choking.
This should do it... if not...
Check the fuel filter and clean it ..you could use a good additive in your fuel to do he same.
The last resort will be to check the fuel pump as the right amount of fuel is not being delivered to the block.
