From all the things you have said and done are you sure that it is spark related and not possibly fuel related. Change the fuel filter and check the fuel pressure.

Intermitant cold start misfire

Most likely none are related to the computer. Surging idle is often a sign of a vacuum leak and can cause random misfires. Vacuum leak would also cause hesitation. Sensor heater can be a fuse, wiring or bad sensor. What's the window doing?
