No, do not ever put autolite gps in any diesel, the same goes for champion, unless you like the thought of pullin a head to remove a broken or swollen gp tip. Beru makes motorcraft gps, and they are the only ones I will ever use.

These guys are correct, which is why Motorcraft are the only ones we sell. We have seen to many issues with the off brands to even make them worth a gamble. If you have any questions let us know.
