engine cranks, but wont start

i will try to make as short story.
i went for vacation for about 3 weeks. in that time my tranny was in shop for rebuild. my car (99 b.tch) was parked by my house w/o battery.
when i came back i put my tranny back, connected everything. Then i tried to start it. Engine cranks but wont start.
Engine gets sparks, fuel pump is working but fuel is not getting to cylinders
I called couple people and i was told that the battery was too long out of car and immobiliser went down and there is only one way to fix (reprogram) it - dealer.
Do you guys know how to do it w/o trip to dealer??

No other way, you have to get your keys reprogrammed at the dealer, cost around $100. Trust me, this happened to me before and it took 3 weeks for other mechanics to tell me to take it to the dealer.

Yeah I know how it is, I went through this 2 times, but if you have emergency road side assistance than you shouldn't worry.

Just make your own immobiliser. It is somwhat tricky, but it is better to deal with when it goes down.
