Tried to start my Alero (2.4L) this morning and it did not start. At first, it started slightly but did not run smooth at all and died after 2-3 seconds. I tried to start it immediately after and it turns over fine, but as soon as engine takes over from the starter motor, there's a pretty violent shutter and it dies.

Any ideas what this could be caused by? It's pretty cold here, not sure if that would have anything to do with it.

EDIT: I have had a code thrown for a minor EVAP leak. Haven't had the chance to address it, but maybe this could play a part in it as well?
