An alarm with starter kill just breaks the circuit to the starter. If it was an alarm problem, even if you armed it while running and it broke the circuit to the starter, it would still stay running. Either way, if you remote unlock the doors on any vic with an alarm on it, it will disarm the starter kill. You're more than likely looking at an alternator/battery issue.

If the car has the OEM alarm it doesn't have engine kill anyway! If the battery has a bad cell it will act this way, also a bad ignitor will do it!
