The fuel pump isn't being shut down , the engine computer isn't seeing a anti-theft system pass word (code) so it disables the fuel injectors . The security light on ? DTC'S - diagnostic trouble code's are stored . Need a factory or professional scanner to read this code's . You could try a by pass of the key an lock cylinder ,but that may not be the problem . Does your key have a resistor pellet on the side of the key > GM VATS Key Resistor Key Security Bypass
that means that your fuel pressure isnt high enough to run check fuel pressure should be 40lbs on crank mode and little lower in run mode , you might check fuel filter
U have 2 seperate problems, the gas gauge issue is caused by a defective sending unit in the gas tank, the cutting out will require u take the car in and have the electronic engine control system tested for trouble codes. Does this car have the 5.7 L engine?
Only thing you can do yourself is to pull off the connector on the computer and check pins for corrosion. If you can get another computer on "loan" you might try plugging it in. though its somewhat rare (it should be) computers do fail. On older cars you can likely get a replacement in any scrap yard. sorry I can't help more, but with no readings, everything points to what I've said. You should also check ignition switch to amke sure power is coming out of there to remainder of system.
