Car won’t start

So some background, I installed new fuel lines from the engine to the fuel filter. Everything looked really good till I ran it for a bit. When I put my foot on the gas it went dead. Saw no drip from the filter, no kinks in the line either. So I check the air flow and even changed the MAF sensor. Cleaned it too. So I don’t know if its air flow or something else. Any advice ? ( engine still turns over as well)

When it won't run, check fuel pressure with a gauge and check a spark plug wire to see if you have spark. Let us know what you find. If you don't have a fuel pressure tester gauge you can borrow one from an auto parts store.

Assuming the vehicle ran ok prior to the replacement fuel line, sounds like it's not getting fuel. The pressure issue pointed out by Ronnie may be a contributing factor. However, I'd recheck the replacement fuel line for a "kink" or some other obstruction. 

You apparently did not change the fuel filter, and perhaps you should consider doing so.
