Talking about ICP choices going forward... Over on the SD sub-forum we seemed to have noticed a bad run of ICP's coming from OEM suppliers a few months ago. Similar to the Alliant UVCH (1999 - 2003) that are now on backorder because Alliant themselves said there was a "problem with their manufacturer and quality control" and all supplies have been pulled back.
Anyway, an FTE'r ( @FordTruckNoob ) identified an alternative to the Motorcraft/International ICP as one made by Honeywell.

The longevity, life expectancy and feasibility of the Honeywell ICP is still in question though. I have linked it and provided it here simply as an alternative to OEM as these engines get a little older each day. There may be a day when we need to source reputable sensors from non-OEM sources due to lack of production or poor quality control practices by the manufacturers.
In addition, some information on counterfeit Motorcraft parts/sensors is below.

Good luck out there!

OK I did not know that...thanks for Info...SO It could be possible that the 2 spare ICP's I bought from the International dealer close to my House over 8 years ago are NFG ? That would suck....

It is good to have options, especially when the traditional option is no longer valid.
