Make sure you didn't mix-up any vacuum lines or forget to connect any. Is there a check engine light on?

No check engine light is on. Vaccuum lines are correct.

even if the light isn't on, have the computer scanned for codes. There may be one. Most nationally recognized parts stores will do it for free. Also, check the fuel pressure both before the fuel filter and after.
