If you got much air in the fuel system, and / or the fuel pump drained down, you'll need to prime the system. That or blow the air through the injectors.

If it cranks over fine try starting it with WD-40 (not ether or 'quick start') into the intake past the air filter.

If it will start on that it will only take a few seconds for the fuel to purge the air through the injectors.

Don't be alarmed if you get white smoke while its cranking or a little black smoke as it starts.

Best of luck. ....

I try to fill my new filter before installing them if possible as that helps with having to bleed the system. ....
