Sounds like you didn't properly prime the system before starting it the first time after changing the filters. Now you have air in the fuel rails in the heads. Priming it now won't help, because the air bubbles are already past the fuel return line. This is why it ran for a couple of minutes, and then died out. If I am right, your solution is to crank crank crank and crank some more. You might even need some battery charger help. Be sure to crank for 1 minute, then rest the starter for 1 minute so that it doesn't overheat. When it does start, it will probably be rough for a while while all the air gets purged out through the injectors.
