You don't mention what year the car is, cause back in the day, they had TSB if this occurs replace the ignition switch, I had my 89 done and never had problem again.
I also in the beginning by-pass my VATS, that stopped working and leaving me stranded.
After the ignition switch replacement kept the car 15 more years with never start problem again.

5 second run and shutoff is how the oil pressure switch functions on some models. It's right behind the distributor... you can jumper to test, just make sure you actually do have oil pressure.
