the recall is for 97-03 7.3 Diesels in regards to the CPS failure.

Yeah but you should call ahead and schedule it so they have the cps on hand

You sure can. I got mine around Christmas time when Ford also hooked me up with another remanufactured tranny. I only got 12,000 miles out of the last one.

what about 2nd owners? i guess i could just call a dealer tomorrow...

Yep doesn't matter if you are an original owner or not. If the recall hasn't been done on your vin then yes its free of charge with the dealer doing the install

CPS = cam position sensor

it tells the computer what position the engine is in. if it fails, the engine shut downs and will not restart.
