Sounds like you may have an issue w/ the fuel pump prime/ run circuit. Initial key on runs the pump for a few secs, then shuts off, unless the ecm sees a tach signal. [Sounds like the engine is running just long enuf to burn off the initial prime fuel.] Or, if it's still working, the pump bypass sw will close at about 4psi oil pressure. It's located below the turbo.
I'd suggest you disconnect the batt, drop the column down, and inspect the wiring. There are several wires plugged into the area on the top of the column.
When you dropped the column, you may have pulled a hot wire out of a plug, and shorted it to grnd.
Could be the run side of the ign is not hot when the key is released back to "run".
Have you checked all the fuses?
Do you have a wiring schematic?
