Default I need help!please?

So my car was giving me heating problems and it turned out to be the head gasket we change it. I sent the head to get pressured checked and flatten out the gasket surface. We are done putting everything together and we turn the car on it turns on and stays on for about a minute or so but then it turns off on its own like just automatically. Now it wont turn on and we have no idea what it could be. Any suggestions? Thanks for helping.

Are you not getting any engine codes? What do the plugs look like?

My cousin(mechanic) says spark plugs are fine. The machine am using gives me no codes. My thought is since it has been lifted for a few weeks perhaps gas isn't flowing? Idk but quite weird since it was already on.

you need to get the diagnostic codes by putting a paperclip on the connector located in the center console, below the radio. jump the pins buy placing the paperclip in the connector. turn the ignition until the dash lights come one(oil, coolant). the check engine light will blink a series of flashes. get the diagnostic code list and compare. it will tell u what is wrong or where to start.
