My first guess would be a defective Torque Converter lock-up Solenoid. Very common on these cars. Disconnect the solenoid, and if the problem goes away the solenoid needs replacing.

Can you push in the clutch and brake without shifting it in neutral?

No. You will stall(or cut-out). This means that the car shuts down and then you have to clutch in and put it into neutral. Then(still on the clutch) turn on the car again.


Is there a kill switch or an interrupt switch on a 1990 Chevrolet Cavalier Z24?

Not sure if you mean a fuel pump cut off switch that shuts down the fuel in case of an impact.?. But if it is, just look in the trunk, sometimes behind the carpet or molding and you will find the reset. But actually I don't think that car has one, think that is controlled by the ecu. If you are not talking bout this, then the answer is no...there is not a "kill" or "interrupt" switch.
