Default starting problems

I went to leave for work this morning and my car won't start. When I turn the key, you can hear the main relay click and the lights in the dash for high beams and both turn signals light up. The starter is only a few months old

Well I got it to turn over. There was gas in the cylinders. Got that out and she started up. But when I put the breather hose from the vc back into the intake tub it dies out. What would cause this?

The breather to the intake causes it to die?
Do you have a check engine light?

Do you have a vacuum leak perhaps?

Try changing your O2 sensor
Check your fuel injectors by placing a screwdriver on them and the handle to your ear.
They should all have a solid click click click

Right now the light is off and it is running good at the moment. I'm thinking of just swapping to mpfi soon. I was trying to put it off till summer but might have to do it sooner than later. Just have to bear the cold I guess.
