1991 mits pk /2.4 truck start but won' stay running

I don't know if this will help you, but I once owned a 1990 model which had a moisture problem with the distributor cap. Everytime I drove in the rain the truck's motor would shut down. Check for moisture or wear in distributor components, especially the cap.

2002 saturn sl won't start, turn over but won't start

Done cars have a kill switch if they are low on oil. Check your oil. If the oil is good, it may be the ignition switch.

Need code for radio 95 bmw 525i

If you do not have the code written in your owners manual or on some other piece of material you got with the purchase of your car then the only way to get the code is to remove the radio, check the serial number and call BMW with that serial number. Good luck!
