Engine turns on but doesn’t stay on

Need help figuring out the issue guyz. It all started after I got my intake gasket,distributor cap and rotor, spark plugs, spark plug wires, ignition coil replaced and a tune up. The mechanic told me It also had low compression after putting all the parts in but it still ran decent. The car was running fine at first, drove it for a few mins then it sat til the next day. I turn it on and it’s starts ok, take it for a spin around my neighborhood and while I’m driving the car feels strange kinda sluggish so I head back home. Then as soon as I park the engine tries to shut off but I turn it off before it does. I wait and turn it on again, it turns on but then shuts off suddenly. After that I haven’t moved the car.

Re: Engine turns on but doesn’t stay on

Does your mechanic offer some sort of warranty on their work/parts? Sounds like it's only been a couple days since they worked on it.
