Car cranks/turns over just fine. Has plenty of spark and fuel. Car was acting squirly day before it died. When leaving work, the car started and idled very roughly ~600 rpm. Held my foot on the gas for about 15 seconds seemed to clear it up, drove home without any problems. Started up next morning and drove to work without any problems. When leaving work, car started, ran for about 5 seconds and promptly died and could not be restarted. Unfortunately a buddy of mine was checking fusses and I believe he reset the CEL because it's not throwing any codes. Anybody got any ideas?

You may wanna check the Cooling Temp Sensor as well. For some odd reason my buddies 5s in his camry did the same thing, just wouldn't start up and then replaced his sensor and it was all golden.
