It could be something in the wiring, I am assuming you changed the spark plugs and wires if you have changed the coil.

there is no check engine light,

just wondering if the computer has to have the same number as the original for it to work?

Thanks:

No I was referring to it only firing on two cylinders. Usually if it won't crank it is a starter, starter relay, battery cable, ignition cylinder, or bad electrical connection somewhere between the key and starter.
