Thumbs down 916s P8 ECU

Just bought my first Ducati 916s, have been told by the engineers that the equipment you use to talk to the ECU isn't talking to it and I can't get the fueling sorted out. The bike runs ok on a motorway but around town it's a nightmare keeps oiling up the plugs and the the exhaust looks like a coalminers glasses. The guys working on it have said that the ECU is Knackered? In my blind panic and last week not knowing to much about ECU,s I got hold of a couple happy days. Knowledge is a wonderful thing, my bike has a P8 ECU and the 2 I got hold of were 16M.AO 916 Bip and a 16M.B1 996. Now here's the question can the P8 be repaired without taking out a second mortgage or can I use the M16 type maybe with a few minor modifications to the wiring.
