Well Cool1996, I think you have a pretty unanimous opinion from this forum. The CPS is a problematic device on the 7.3 PSD. As long as you are replacing one, I would pruchase a spare and store it in the glove box. Any price at or near a hundred bucks is usually a good one.

After reading this thread I said to myself "Self, buy a new CPS and install it...and keep the one I take out as a spare." So I read the instructions that were posted earlier in this thread and I see a reference to the engine serial number "375549 (and up)" being the break point between part numbers for the CPS. So I go down to the truck and look on the front of the HPOP for the serial number of the engine...I admit, I am nearly blind...I cannot find a tag with the engine serial number on it, though I find a IH tag on the front of the HPOP which appears to have the part number for the HPOP (1831022C95) on it. I then take the cover, that goes over the fuel filter, off and look around there for the engine serial number - nothing (at least nothing that someone with the vision of Ray Charles can see). What am I missing here, besides my vision? Do I need to look for the block number stamped into the block? I found a reference for that back by the oil filter, but would rather avoid getting under the truck right now. Any advice would be most appreciated! Corneal transplants are not an option at this time!

Well, it happened, and I was UNPREPARED!! What a FOOL I am!!
Yup, my baby puked her CPS yesterday at 126K miles. Fortunately, I was close to home and no big deal.
For those of you reading this thread and have contemplated picking-up a spare.....don't just talk about it AS I DID...JUST DO IT!
I picked-up mine (and a spare) at the local International Dealership (Part # 1825899C93) - $93.00....Or, if you're feeling generous - $215.00 at your local Ford Dealer.
