Riffraff Diesel Cam Position Sensor CPS 1994-2003 7.3L
Remember the original International "Black CPS" that originally came with the Powerstroke? Your engine idled smoother, had better cylinder contribution, and overall better drivability but unfortunately it was discontinued almost 20 years ago. The industry has been forced to make due with the updated "Grey CPS" and sacrifice those original attributes until now...
We have developed a brand new CPS that has all the original qualities, with the addition of 20 year newer chip and sensor technology! With this new technology and manufacturing knowledge we have been able to accurately increase the signal strength and clarity at more than double the air gap and rpm the original "Black CPS" was able to sense with no degradation of signal. This allows for more realized benefits and reliability than even the original "Black CPS was able to provide.
- ISO 14001 and IATF 16949 production facility
- Sensors are function tested on an actual 7.3L Cam gear for 100% accuracy
- Assembly process is re-validated biannually on all sub-components

CPS Sensor
I was very skeptical of the claims that I had seen on Facebook and forums of how much this new cps would help. Well I can confirm, not only does the truck run and start better but I have NEVER seen a contribution test so clean, and with that low of percentages. I waited almost 2 months to post a review because I wanted to put as many miles on it as I could. This is the real deal!

RDP for the win
GREAT PRODUCT. So cool that RDP is reproducing and improving hard to find &/or obsolete parts like this! Ordered 2 of them as soon as they were back in stock (momentarily). I had just put a new dark CPS in my 01 f350 and that had made a HUGE difference from the one that was in it. Then I got the RDP CPS and put it in, not thinking there would be much improvement over another new sensor. Boy was I wrong. The claims are correct; faster start, smoother idle, quieter all-around, better throttle response. Clay you deserve an award for this one! THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU

CPS Sensor
Great to see someone finally fixing this issue that everyone have dealt with for years. I feel like my truck runs like it did 15 years ago, fast start and great idle. Thank you Riff raff diesel for putting in the work.

Not Much to Say
Pretty much same as everyone else, smooth idle and much quieter running overall. Could go on, but it is exactly like they shown on the graph. Great improvement overall.

Satisfied!
I’ve put only about 100 miles on the truck since installing the new CPS. But the truck noticeably starts quicker and runs smoother. It also feels like the power is better, and doesn’t lug as much when RPM’s are low. Another thing I am noticing and will keep an eye on is the oil temps appear to be down about 5 degrees under the same conditions. I will try to update as I put more miles on the truck with the new CPS.

Riffraff CPS
I was definitely a little skeptical if I’m being honest, but after installing the upgraded CPS my truck idles better and is quieter. I can’t notice a difference driving but having the smoother idle is a big plus. I will absolutely be buying another one.

Riffraff Cam Sensor
The Riffraff can sensor resulted in very violent engine stop/start incidents. I verified it was installed all the way in. I was surprised how violent these moments were. In the first test drive, was driving fine then, the engine would momentarily shut off for a half a second or so then come back on for another half second, and continue this cycle slamming the transmission. In 30 years of working on cars and truck it was the most violent thing I’ve felt from an engine even more than when I felt a crankshaft break. I installed a Cam sensor from Ford and no problems since then.

Smooth Idle
Way smoother idle and this truck has never passed a contribution test till now. Very happy.

New CPS
Came well packaged and a day early. Easy install, probably easiest to do on the whole truck other than the IPC sensor. Overall everything seems to run better, just like when it was new with my old black ford CPS. Worth the money.
