really dumb question, but....How much gas is in the car?

I haven't had to replace a fuel pump yet, but I remember there being some pickup lines there. Sure you didn't knock any of them off?

Sounds like you have a fuel issue. I would do as Blue suggested. Turn the ignition to the on position, that will start the fuel pump. At the engine, fuel rail, take a small screwdriver and press the schrader valve to see if you get fuel to come out. If not then you know the issue is with the pump or related.

Other thing you can do is put the old pump back in and see if it starts. If so, again, problem with new pump.

Also, I would put things back in place with the relay.
