05 Mazda tribute 3.0. Replaced all 6 plugs and
coils and installed preprogrammed computer. Car

stuck the old computer back in and still no crank.

I thought the very same thing. I've gone through it 6 times and yes I had to remove the upper intake.

The anti theft light flashes continuously. Could the chip in the key been damaged from the first pcm?
