'87 cps

[mark 39]

      Is the cps for a '87 the same as '88-'90's? Found 2 different Mopar #'s; T0739789 for '87 and 33004761 for '88-'90. I thought '87-'90 used the same part. Since there's $20 price difference I'd rather buy the cheaper one. Any better brand than Mopar? Thanks for any input.       Mark

According to the parts manual, the correct CPS for your 87 4.0 is the T0739789. The 88 and above 33004761 CPS is most likely the same CPS sensor but the harness connector may be different. The CPS connectors were changed a few times throughout the years.

All Renix 4 and 6 cylinders have the same CPS connector.

Okay - didn't know that. The HO CPS connectors changed three times that I know of and I ASSumed the Renix connectors did also.

      After looking at numerous dealer sites I think both numbers are for the same part. I believe T0739789 to be an AMC number and 33004761 to be Chrysler. Why the price difference for Mopar branded parts  from the same dealer I don't know; must be one of those mysteries man was meant to never understand. If my luck is as usual I will be wrong, but I'm going for the cheaper one.

That first number is not an AMC number. The second one is.
