CPS Sensor failure

Took my truck into the Blue Oval dealer. F250 PSD had been stopping, missing for several weeks. Several days between episodes, then several each day on drive to work ( 10 miles each way).
Dealer had truck for 3 days. Backed up in deisel shop with 2003, 04, 05's with major engine problems.

Called me to let me know it was a Cam Position Sensor, and my cost was $100 .

I like the 100k mile warrenty on the drive train.

Hope this helps others.

You should have stopped by here sooner. You could have gotten one yourself for close to $100, put it in, takes less than 15 minutes and not had your truck down for 3 days.
Great help here and your symptoms would have immediately drawn comments on a CPS failure.

Stop by and ask questions next time you have problems.
