If the key is in "On" position, jumping the solenoid bypasses the neutral safety switch which would allow it to start. Make sure key is off, and disable the iginition system to prevent accidental starting.

Why would your car start but continue to make a noise like you have just turned the ignition on?

Here are several answers and opinions from FAQ Farmers: * The starter drive is a little gear unit that gets pushed into the flywheel teeth to rotate the engine during starting. Once the engine picks up speed, the flywheel starts turning faster and spins the starter drive backwards back into the starter. Either the starter drive is bad on your car, or the solenoid that pushes the drive forward is bad. Either way, you're looking at buying a new starter. * Assuming from you description that you mean that the starter is staying on after you start the engine. It depends on the configuration of the solenoid and starter. Sometimes the solenoid can be held down if you have a stuck keyswitch or if the solenoid contacts have fused.

One possibility is a defective lock-up torque converter solenoid. If it runs and idles fine in then this would be what I would check first. Disconnect it and if it then stops stalling in drive, you have found the culprit.
