Blue CPS

[DavidJ]

Put it in mine 10 days ago and it does make a difference. Smoother and not as clacky (if that's a word?).

not much to add but in case you all forgot ford did not build a 7.3 they get them from international with the cps in as far as i have been told.

I have the blue DT466 sensor in the X and it does make a difference in the over all running, quietness and seems a little more peppy. I don't drive the X much this time of year, have a old 92 Exploder for that, but I was impresses with what it has done so far.
For the 100 bucks, I would say it is worth it.

I put one in yesterday. I have to ditto everything that FordMastertech said, especially the "I have spent more money on stupider things" part. The blue CPS cost me about $85 at a nearby IH parts dealer.

First thing I noticed was the improvement in the way the engine sounded this morning with the first cold start, less "clacky" like DavidJ said. Once warmed up, it seemed to idle a bit smoother and maybe a bit quieter. It seems like it takes just a bit less throttle to make things move, but that may be the "placibo" effect.

I think it helps people with older model F250's mine didnt do anything..

The biggest diffrence came when I changed to a Synthetic oil NOW that made a diffrence!

Back around the last week of April is when the new part number and pricing was issued

Got a pair the first week of May

I have read I can get the international blue cps for $25 shipped. I have not been able to find it for under $100 anywhere online or elsewhere. I paid $114 at my local international dealer today. Does anyone know if there is a noticeable diferance between the blue international and the new ford cps ? As I have not installed it yet

The blue CPS thing went around a year or two back. Some said it changes the timing position which could help MPG's but don't quote me on it

It's basically a crapshoot,install it and evaluate it,who knows it might aid in quicker starting,acceleration and lower EGT's. Post back with your findings

I might move this to a Blue CPS thread to keep the discussion in line.

My 2 Cents

I installed the blue CPS, part number 1825899C93, in March 06 at around 30K, it failed yesterday at 47K. I had to put the factory CPS back in to get home. While old blue was in use I noticed no appreciable difference in mileage or performance.

Make up your own mind.

My 2 Cents Updated

Since I was currently running on the factory original I took the truck to the dealer for the CPS recall I was notified about in March. While I was there I decided to buy a spare to carry with me, I figured it was worth the expense rather than pay for a tow truck in the event of a failure. Much to my surprise the CPS costs less than $30. The IHC blue one I bought two years ago was nearly $90. By the way the new F@&D CSP is gray.

Does anyone know what changes were made on the new version over the old?
