I had the auto shop at the college replace my clutch and complete ignition harness key cylinder and all (lost the keys to car). I drove the car out of the auto shop and as soon as I had traveled about 1/4 mile the engine just died and now it just cranks and does nothing else. Is there something the alarm systen, now disconnected, might have to do with this problem? I wanty to find a resolution before I go back to the auto shop professor and explain my displeasure of the work that has been performed by his students.

the starter should be replaced. The solenoid is kikcing the pinion out but there is no contact being made to turn the starter motor. I have the exact same truck and before i changed the starter used the old starter tap trick. Tap the starter casing with a hammer and it should start turning again. hope this was helpful for you. Good luck.
SOURCE: lost ignition key and replace it, then car would not crank
That is true its part of the antitheft system.

Add Duplicate Key (PK3 or PK3+ key)
1. Insert an existing working key into the ignition cylinder.
2. Turn the ignition cylinder to ON (RUN) and back to OFF.
3. Remove the existing key and, within fifteen seconds, insert the new key
and turn it to ON (RUN).
4. The security light will light up for two seconds to indicate success in programming
the key into the vehicle.

You need to find the black push button called the valet button. That is the overide. Get in the car turn the key to IGN as the alarm is going off and then you have either 5 or 10 seconds to push that button once and then 2-5 seconds later the alarm is shut off. To put the car into valet mode which means no alarm at all you put the key to IGN push that button once then pull key out at which point the blue light should turn solid blue.
Or option two is you open a door and hit the lock, then unlock, then lock button again on the remote and the blue led will be solid which means no crazy alarm.
