Just replaced my CPS in an autozone parking lot :eek:
The ol' Comanche left me stranded at walmart on Saturday so I figured something was up. The gf and I had to leave it in the parking lot all night because it was too cold to do anything. The next morning it started right up and I promptly drove it home. I wasn't 100% sure what the problem was so I decided to drive it to work today (about 20miles one way), and the only odd occurrence was that it would cut out every now and then (sudden loss of power and the tach would drop to 0).
I had been reading up on the CPS and decided I should go to autozone and pick one up since they are only 30 bucks, so after work I drove there and bought one and the comanche promptly refused to start again hehe. One of the guys that worked there was outside smoking and let me borrow some tools and a flashlight. The whole job took me about 2 hours, I had 3 extensions and there is quite abit of skin missing from my knuckles but she fired up on the first try and I hope I never have to replace a damned CPS again. :D
Just wanted to share my story. thx
