No start after fuel filter change

Thanks in advance for any help...
Changed fuel filter, bumped the starter several times to pump fuel into housing. Ran for 20 nor 30 seconds and now refuses to start. Did I possibly get air in the lines? How would I bleed it out? How would I check fuel pressure?
2000 24 valve

I'm confused. In your signature it says you have a 2000 24 valve. Did you do the filter on a 12 valve or just post in the wrong section?

Crack all the lines to the injectors crank on it till fuel comes out, close the lines one at a time.
