Momentary power loss... CPS?

When driving at a steady speed I'll have power loss that lasts for half a second, like the truck is having one big hiccup. Once while at a stop sign, my motor quit running, but started right back up. Is it time to replace the CPS? If not, is there anything else I should look at? I have 112K on the motor, and I don't believe the CPS has been changed.

THANKS!

My truck does the same thing, it has 151k on it now. It does the hiccup maybe once a week to me, but has yet to die. I'm getting a CPS soon!
