I finally completed the CPS installation article I been procrastinating over for the past few months

Check it out and pass it around to fellow 7.3L owners that needs a basic install how-to.

nice pics,
is that really your engine or a stunt double? looked to clean for a east texas engine

was your old one giving you issues or was it changed just to be sure?

 

[CHPMustang]

Yup that be my engine and that's how clean it stays for the most part,hasn't been off road in over 3 years

The original CPS started hiccuping occasionally maybe a year ago then this past March it started shutting the engine down so it was time

Got 40k out of the original,not too bad

Could you post a description of where it is/how hard to reach? I want to print all this off and put in glove box - just in case.

Thanks! Good writeup.

that would be cheating, everyone needs to learn how to change it on the side of road in the dark pouring rain with a HOT engine, feet sticking back under truck absorbing the tranny heat and the asphalt, just like a big HOT pocket , sure was glad i didnt have any oil leaks
yep gives new meaning to "I love my truck"

did i say i miss my 7.3 ?

I updated the article with a photo of the location and text. Ease of install depends on the installers flexibility pretty much,I was able to hang a small portable shop light in front of the crankshaft area to help see what I'm doing better

That thing looks so clean, I'd find it more believable if you'd said it hadn't come out of the garage in over 3 years!!
