Welcome to AF!!

If you are having problems with the car starting or stalling don't waste time checking it just go ahead and replace it. If you aren't having any problems then don't worry about testing it. The manual I have doesn't give any testing criteria for the CPS.

Check autozone.com/repairinfo for decent instructions.

You will need to remove the harmonic balancer. The center bolt is the hardest part so I suggest an impact wrench. The advice that Maxwedge gave is good as they give detailed instructions.
