Default Civic won't start after clutch master cylinder replacement

Hello all, So about 2 weeks ago i changed a faulty clutch master cylinder. I installed a new one and my car ran fine for about 10 min. of driving. I ended up parking it and had it sit at idle for 1 min and the car just shut off. almost as if someone just randomly turned off the car. i try turning it on and everything sounds healthy but it just doesn't turn on. and i smell some gas when i go check my engine after trying to turn it on. can someone help? thanks

Maybe your distributor died coincidentally. When it rains it pours

So is are you having troubles cranking the car or keeping the car running.

I'm having troubles with it actually turning on. It cranks and cranks but never turns on.

Thanks. That's exactly what I did and it turned out that it was the coil. I fot a spark tester that plugs to the apark plug wire and saw there was no spark. And using my volt tester I saw that there was no spark at the coil. Then tested to see if there was a current running to the coil and THERE WAS. So in conclusion the coil was faulty and now it runs after the replacement. Now on how to mark this post as solved is another question.
