I have seen several posts with people buying the eBay special ICP sensors with course threads. So I decided to put together a post showing the difference in the sensors. I ended up putting together a PDF that I have on my web page to help everyone out. The PDF turned out to be more of an R&R document with pictures and a little information about the sensor. Hopefully it will help others out and please share it with everyone.

reps to ya. this is perfect guidelines.

 

Awesome write-up. FYI, the Space Shuttles used variable capacitor transducers based on a 5V reference as well.

 

Excellent write up. Stuff like this is what makes FTE the best 7.3 forum.

 

Nice write and great photos Ken!! reps to you.

 

holy!!!! sweet writeup! i need a new icp... has been slowly leaking oil, gonna have to make an order from ed

 

Great write up, Ken. Thanks for taking the time to provide so much good information.

 

Thanks for the write up. I am one of those that bought the ebay bogus icp. I know a guy with an older truck and I can give it to him.

I will look for a proper ICP now that I have the part number.

Thanks again

 

No need to look to hard, Clay at Riffraff Diesel Sells them for a great price.

Plus it comes in a brown box with cool yellow tape!

 

RiffRaff is great and I have gotten great service from him. However I need my truck for a job by tomorrow morning. Can't wait for delivery to Alaska.

 

your dealer should stock them, price will be around $169 though!

 

Too late. The truck quit on me again right in the middle of evening traffic and I had to have it towed.
I have no place to work on it and with temperatures dropping below zero I had to surrender and have it towed to the dealer.
Now I am at their mercy.

 

Keep us posted on there story of the fix.

 

Rep police got me again.

 

REPS!! I have to do this with mine, (just because after 265K miles I think it is time), and a couple of friends are having issues with theirs as well. Plus it gives me a reason to buy a set of crows foot wrenches.
