Having your health is no laughing matter.
Sucks about the warranty and computer failure. This is the E-tec? I have been waiting for the other shoe to drop on this Optipop. Mercury computer, compressors, coils, TPS and injectors. I don't think $1500 is too bad my boating brother. Hell I throw near half of that in the drink on a good weekend. LOL!

Damn, tried raising hell with anybody?
Are you on ETEC Owners Group Forum? Someone there might have some words of advice. I'd ask for you old ECU back, I'll bet some tech geek with a soldiering iron could fix it for cheap.

the problem with buying a used ecu from e-bay or anywere else is alot of times they cant be reprogramed to match the motor. we ran into that alot when i worked for BMW & MERCEDES. once the ecu was programed for a pacific vin# you could not take it out and put into another car and reprogram it to that vin# hence forceing the customer to go to the dealer. they are high for what they are. i would call customer service and ask for some GOODWILL ASSISTANCE!! was it dealer installed? if so they should be able to contact the service rep and get you some kind of help!!!
