What does it do after it shuts off? Does it start right back up?
Is the check engine light coming on at all?
Did you replace it with the exact same motor with all matching sensors?

Does it shut right off like something took spark away? Or does it stumble a little then die, like its running out of fuel? Is the security light flashing in the dash? Its possible you need to relearn the passlock. To do that, turn the key on, crank it, and leave it in the run position for 15-20 minutes until the security light stops flashing.
