B_THOMPSON,
I had my '95 do the same thing with any trailer hooked up. I checked all my connections and still had a problem with it stalling out. I pulled out my spare CPS and swapped them out and the problem went away. I would have never thought the trailer would cause that to happen. Those CPS are strange. Like they said swap it out and see if it cures it. Good luck

CPS pricing
Heya guys. It's been awhile!!!
I need a CPS and I see that Ebay is no better deal than one of the member sponsors here on the site. All week Ebay has been running up around $90.00 + shipping for new CPS (they spike at the last minute) with 8-10 bids by the last day.
Millenuim Ford (who is a sponsor here) has a web price of $100.00. As it happens, I bought my PST from them last June. Good dealer, stands up to their word. When I bought it, the brake caliper seized on my way home from the dealership. They paid a tow (expedited it too), and replaced the entire front brake system: Calipers, rotors, pads on both sides, and also new lines to the brake cylinder at theri expense. Even after I hammered them down to $5200.00 on a 94.5 PST % speed with 156k on it, clean with 1 owner.

I went to the stearlership yesterday to get a CPS to keep in my tool box for a long trip I am goin g to be taking. I did not have time to wait and order one online.
The first price the girl at the counter gave me was 190.00. I almost crapped and she noticed. I said I may have to go check the international parts shop because the price was too high.
She took pity on my wallet and brought the price down to 150.00
I did not know they could even do that. Next time I'll know to hmm and haahhh over the price and try to get them down some.

Correct part # for 94.5 7.3L DI CPM??
Ok, I have gotten two different part numbers referenced for the same CPM. 1 is more expensive than the other but they are both supposedly the same thing. I bet Cuda Jim or some other PST brainiac here knows the answer so I buy the right part, so here goes:
Part #1: 4C4Z-12K073-AB - $81.00
Part #2:F6TZ-12K073-A - $101.00
Is there a difference?
Part #1: 4C4Z-12K073-AB - $81.00
Part #2:F6TZ-12K073-A - $101.00

o.k....stupid question but i have to ask since I make pretty long trips pulling a pretty heavy load with my truck. How do you change the CPS? Everyone says its easy, but I dont even know where it is? Also if you replace it, lets say now, should you "still keep an extra in your glove box"?

FL BWAB, the cps is on the frt of the engine. all you need to change it is a wrench or socket(10mm?) and a small dab of grease to lube the O-ring . unplug the old 1 and pry it out gently with a slotted screwdriver and put it in your glovebox as a spare.Install the
new 1 and plug it back in you're done .
