Is it possible that the filter was installed backwards? Many filters include a built in check valve that only allows fuel to flow in one direction. If this is the case they will have an arrow located somewhere on the filter to indicate the direction of flow.

93 volvo 850 glt changed the fuel pump now car wont start. Engine cranks, fuel pump working, fuel getting to the motor but it wont start. The car had trouble starting sometimes so i changed the fuel...

Check your fuel pressure to ensure proper pressure to the block, also did you replace the fuel filter.

On a side note: 3 things a automobile needs to run

AIR-make sure you have a clean air filter and your MAF (mass air flow sensor is plugged in) if you pulled your breather to innspect anything, there is a possibility that it came unplugged or you unpluged it and forgot to hook it back up, a car wont start without it being plugged in if equiped

SPARK-Make sure your car has juice to the plugs, if the plug doesnt fire the car wont run, if you have to pull each plug and ground them to the engine block to see if they arch. If not trace the problem down (if you changed the fuel pump you have some mechanical skill and should be able to troubleshoot a spark issue)

FUEL-Check for proper pressure, dirty fuel filter(s) and if your system has a return line, make sure your hoses didnt get crossed cause this will damage the engine and regulator.

Hope this helps Thanks for using Fixya.com

Changrd e g r cooler engine wont start .code says

check your fuel pressure with a guage, hook it up to your fuel rail, you may have a clogged fuel filter, or a non-working/bad fuel pump. Hope this helps, let me know

Car wont start just changed the fuel filter no fuel was being pumped through is the fuel pump the problem

Very possibly the fuel pump.Just check that there are no air locks in the system first.If you pull the feed line off before the filter and crank the engine if still no fuel then check the fel pump fuse first,if ok test the pump

Changed fuel filter now car wont start

did you install the filter the correct direction some only allow fuel flow in one direction, or the increased fuel flow because the filter was no longer plugged may have sent more dirt and rust into the new filter clogging it
