OZZ: I don't think you'll have a CPS problem with your Sick-O, but for inquiring minds ... on a 7.3 looking from above the radiator there is a serpentine belt pulley right off the A/C bracket ... looking almost straight down, above and to the left of the harmonic balancer you'll see the CPS. From below the radiator, you'll see it on the passenger side somewhat above the timing pointer off the harmonic balancer. As stated .. piece of cake to change with a 10 MM socket / ratchet / extension combo. Remove 2 wire connector ... 1 bolt removes the fork retainer ... sensor pulls straight out. Little oil on the O-Ring on the new sensor ... reverse order to install.
Remember when most of us carried a new set of points and a condenser in our gloveboxes??? IMHO other than the inconvenience of 15 minutes of your time ... it's really a non issue unless you don't have a spare in your glovebox. Like mentioned above, all engines have their little quirks.
