You did what? He asked a question that was one of two things. Did you remove the clip or did you remove the screws?
If you didn't remove the screws, ignore the following:
I'm going to assume you removed the screws. Basically that entire clip is very delicate. Once you remove the screws it breaks the solder points and/or jams the gauge for the AFM. What you'll need to do is remove the AFM from the vehicle, using a knife or other sharp object chizzle around the black top of the AFM, and pry it off - be careful not to do any further damage. After that you should see something similar to this,

(Label the terminals on the connector one through seven, with one being on the left hand side.)
If your vehicle continues to die and will not stay running, then look towards terminals 1 and 2. Terminal one is held up by the gauge for the meter when the vehicle is off (preventing a connection). When the vehicle is turned on the gauge moves to your right (looking directly down out the meter), which the flimsy rod on terminal one to connect with the rod on terminal two. This action simply turns on your fuel pump.
If your vehicle just sputters, but stays running look the the rest of the terminals and make sure all the wires have a connecting terminal. If you still can't get it to work, post a picture of the inside of your AFM up here.
When you're done playing with the AFM I'd advise you to seal it up like it was prior to being taken apart.
