Riffraff Diesel Cam Position Sensor CPS 1994-2003 7.3L

The Cam Position Sensor (CPS) is one of the most critical sensors on your 7.3L Powerstroke. It provides the PCM with engine crank position and speed information, allowing the injectors to fire at precisely the right time. When the signal becomes weak or erratic, it can lead to poor drivability, intermittent stalling, hard starting, or even a no-start condition.

The original International “Black CPS” earned a loyal following among 7.3L owners for its excellent drivability and throttle response. When it was discontinued, many aftermarket replacements failed to deliver the same consistent performance.

Rather than simply reproducing an outdated design, we partnered with an OEM sensor manufacturer to develop an all-new CPS using modern Hall Effect technology, improved electronics, and tighter manufacturing controls. The result is a sensor engineered to provide exceptional signal stability, outstanding reliability, and the smooth performance 7.3L owners expect.

Every sensor is manufactured in an IATF 16949 and ISO 14001 certified facility, individually tested before packaging, and validated on an actual 7.3L camshaft gear to ensure consistent performance right out of the box.

Whether you’re replacing a failed sensor or upgrading from an inconsistent aftermarket unit, our Upgraded CPS delivers the quality, reliability, and confidence your Powerstroke deserves.

    Upgraded CPS

    Posted by Shawn Frick on Jul 3rd 2026

    I purchased this upgraded cam position sensor and am very impressed. I have been using the most recent motorcraft CPS on my 96 OBS and it worked fine. I unhooked both negative battery terminals before installing the new updated RIFFRAFF CPS. After install and reconnecting batteries I started the pickup and went for a drive. It idled smoother and seemed to be more responsive with a bit more pep. The new sensor was a bit more money but is definitely worth it in my opinion..

    Chasing cylinder 8 misfire for the last year

    Posted by Michael Hinckley on Jun 14th 2026

    I have been chasing a cylinder 8 misfire for the last year, and recently my truck acted like it wanted to die when idling. Even though I replaced the CPS last year, I had a sneaky suspicion it could be the CPS. I replaced it three days ago, and the truck runs smoother, and the check engine light has not come back on. Thanks Clay and Riffraff. Solid product. Glad I ordered one for both trucks!

    Absolute night and day difference. The second I started the truck it idled so much better than it did before. The truck would stutter above 2k rpms and now it hasn't happened again

    RiffRaff Diesel upgraded 7.3 Powerstroke CPS

    Posted by Blake A Hayes on Jun 5th 2026

    Well once again RiffRaff Diesel does not disappoint!!! Around 5 months ago I replaced my generic CPS with a Motorcraft brand cps and while everything smoothed out my idle just still seemed a little off and I figured I'd get a little better fuel mileage than iv been getting, so I came back to RiffRaff like always to buy their upgraded CPS and immediately after installing and starting up my truck I could tell immediate difference in the smoother idle and all around driving as well. To early to tell if I got any kind of fuel mileage gains but so far RiffRaff Diesel hit a homerun with their upgraded CPS!!! Thanks again RiffRaff Diesel yall always come through with great products great prices and faster processing and shipping times than any other Diesel performance company iv ever used! And no this isn't a paid review either just a guy that appreciates when a company does as they say and stands behind their products!
