That’s where I was with it, throttle body... hmmm, and knowing it was only a few hundred bucks to fix..., I’d have been selling a running, driving 4.6is - not one that “started and died a few minutes later as it started to warm up”, the fact that it started at all almost certainly ruled out the TB, nor as you said, have I ever really diagnosed a TB as a start and die item.

That said, I hope whoever was lucky (if they’re lucky) enough to have picked it up, fixes it cheap and has a nice driver on their hands [emoji106]
