Default More problems

Alright I could really use some help. Was having problems with my starter grinding, took it into the shop to get a new flywheel, everything worked fine, drove it home. Went out to take a cruise a few hours later and the car died on me. It would crank back up then instantly die as soon as it started. Ended up towing it home. I figured either carb or alternator since i've just got a new solenoid, battery, coil. Well it wasn't the alternator, and the carb is squirting gas out of the jets. I can't figure out what it could be any suggestions?

check all the ign components again, just cause its new doesnt mean it cant break.... also just check all your connections in general

If it's dying as soon as you let off the key, check to see if you have power at the coil with the key in run position.
