Reinstalled the old CPS, fired right up. The NAPA CPS had a significantly higher resistance when measured with multimeter. Took it back to NAPA for analysis. Awaiting results. I also had several issues at the same time. The corrosion was the primary problem and the second problem was introduced by the faulty NAPA CPS.
I'll update this when I get an answer from NAPA.


Its been said go BOSCH, or go home. These cars seem to only like BOSCH CPS's so if your replacing one, buy BOSCH.. I don't work for them, I don't own their stock, and I go by literally hundreds of members who have learned the hard way to just get BOSCH CPS's. Good luck!
