Car not starting.

So first of all, My battery was bad but was good enough to get me from point A to point B. Then my brake light swtich went bad which made my car battery die. So I jumped it a few times waiting for my brake light switch to come in. Then after my last jump, it started up, ran for about 1 minute then when I went to drive it, I drove about 10 seconds and the car turned off. We tried to push start. That didn't work. I changed my brake light switch and got a new battery. still no good. Check the fuel line. it was good. check for spark. even changed oout the spark plug. It turn over but it did not start. I even got a new relay for my injectors. I can smell fuel. Any suggestions?

Maybe electrical? or cap and rotar?
