Plug lead breaking down or wrongly connected?
 
Plug leads don't last forever.

If a garage replaced your Head Gasket, then I would take it back to them, as presumably the fault wasn't there before the Head gasket went ?
 
Ask them to check their work over for you in the hope that they will discover the fault.
 
Good luck with it.  Smiley
