Having it checked only satisfies you - not the sensors that indicate a problem.
Resetting the fault code does not change the sensor.
I have never heard of a Diagnostic trouble code (DTC) that indicated you have a cylinder head gasket problem!

I reset engine management light and within minutes light comes on

If the check engine light or MIL - malfunction indicator light , or service engine soon light is on , it means there is a problem with the engine management system ! an it means it set a DTC - diagnostic trouble code in the PCM / ECM - electronic control module ! You can try resetting all you like but it's not going to stay out ! You need to have the vehicle scanned for codes an fix it ! Check Engine Code Scanner Advance Auto Parts

1986 vw golf wont turn over

A head gasket is a gasket that sits between the engine block and cylinder head in an internal combustion engine. Its purpose is to seal the cylinders. It will still start but it won't run that well and you will damage your engine if you run it with it blown. so check your head gasket again.

Engine management light stays on

check whether you do have a smell of fuel or burnt gasket in the radiator after remove the cap. If so then you have an overheated engine and blown gasket. Or check whether if you have either water in engine oil or vice versa. Having any of the two,surely you have to remove cylinder head for renewing cylinder head gasket etc.

Car blowing white smoke but no overheating has had a new cylinder head a year ago done 54.000

is there any coolant in the oil or oil in the coolant. It sounds like a head or gasket problem. Cooling system & oil system are supposed to be sealed systems. If u have add fluids it must be going somewhere. Leaking, burning etc. Good luck, get it checked out.
