You probably messed up the maf plug shoving the filter on. Be more careful. Take off the plug and inspect the wires. Wiggle the wiring and push in towards the plug just incase you yanked on it. You might have to replace the harness plug... If it's anything else, I'd say it's probably your alternator not holding a charge (keeping your car running). Best bet is to turn the car on and pull off the power wire... The car should stay running on it's own. That's if you can get it to idle.
