I think the issue your talkin about may be the engine just seeking idle. Drops below, adds fuel to compensate over shoots then settles. Just a querk I think.

As for the CPS ford had a recall on them for my truck. Maybe others. Had mine replaced by Ford, just a month or two ago.

In the perfect world we would all have an on board a supply of all the possible parts which could fail. In the real world you carry a CPS in the box. But the fuel pump craps. Go figure. Or the power steering line blows out of that wonderfully stupid fitting. In the middle of no where. If you live in the stix, carry what you can. And known to be issues. If your near civilization and a well stocked dealer, forget about it. If ya live near one of the guys in this forum your never totally stranded. Ooooo... Sounds like love Don't it.
