I recently decided to replace my valve cover gaskets due to the fact that they were leaking. After replacing the gaskets and reassembling the engine I can not keep the car running unless I constantly rev the engine once I stop revving it the car stalls out. What could be wrong with it?

Clean out the idle air control, EGR and PCV valves and test the TPS-make sure all vac lines are connected to its port and not leaking
