Fixed fuel leak now car wont start
 
Had a pretty bad fuel leak coming from one of the lines on the fuel tank, it was just a loose fitting so I fixed it then after I fixed it the car wouldnt start. I'm just tryna get help as to why this would be happening, thanks!

Does the car crank but not start?

Would it be possible that you swapped the fuel lines going to the tank?

It may take.a little bit to build fuel pressure if it was totally depressurized. May take a few starting attempts.

Also, could just be flooded if you moved the car cold and shut it down.

yeah I bought new lines and I'm planning on doing that tomorrow. And yeah it cranks but no start and I also thought flooding was a possibly so I took out the leads and unplugged the crank angle sensor and cranked it to get any fuel out then after I put them back in it started but I couldn't keep it on then it just went back to phase one. So I'll see where I am after doing the fuel lines.
