That's the one I'm running, so is this the one considered 'Black'?

That's the one, and it is Dark grey.

In the text on that ebay page it also says it's dark grey.
Could also look like the o-ring is purple on that picture as well.

I'm so confused.....

That is a Dark Blue/Grey one. The Black one is an "A" part number. The Grey is "B" and the Dark Blue/Grey one is "C."

It's different for everybody. Mine runs on the black one best. Plus the grey/blue ones can occasionally cause ghost codes to pop up. On the other hand, the black one is the most likely to fail.

Yeah, Travis, I and some other people did some research.

We cannot trust these SD guys, they are trying to deceive us.

It's okay though. I have the link. =-)

Could the odd stutter I get when cruising between 40 and 50 mph have something to do with my cooling water sensor showing 215 degrees with hot or cold engine?

Borrowed a scanner today, and the dash cooling water is moving from cold to warm as normal, but the engine coolant sensor is constant at 215 degrees.

It's a false reading if your trying to read it with a scanner.
We only have the idiot gauge on the dash for coolant.

Watch your engine oil temperature for that.

I doubt it has to do with your stutter though.
