It's possible you crimped the fuel line. Also, did you change the fuel filter?

 

MORE INFO??

As RJ237 asked, did you remove the fuel lines from the bottom of the tank??

People try to pull (HORSE) the tank into the boot area without disconnecting the lines.
This usually results in destruction of the lines.

ok...I did crimp the fuel line. I fixed it and the car is running great. Thank you
