Can you keep it running using the throttle, or does it just start and stall? Check that all plumbing going into th engine is connected, also check the small vent tube that runs from the rear of the drivers side cam cover, to the air box attached to the throttle body. If all checks o.k., and it won't run with throttle assistance, you may want to check the fuel pressure at that point.
