Throttle actuator control system stuck closed.

Getting a tow but oil pressure normal, oil level normal, coolant good everything visually looks fine bit the bastard won't start

Anyone had this happen before

this happened to me the other morning, that etc light came on and it was idling really rough, switched her off and re started and it was ok, maybe the throttle body on its way out but I checked all the plugs and pins and tightened it all up

TPS? When my ba Xr6 wouldn't start pretty sure ford diagnosed it as being the tps, once I changed that never had a problem ever again

Looks like it. So far car has fuel system and has spark but just refuses to run. Squirted fuel into the manifold and it kicked. Basically sounds like the throttle cbf opening. Which would make sense wih the car running for a few seconds running but no accelerator and then slowing down to a stop as it ran out of fuel

Pretty cheap and easy fix if you're willing to do it yourself. Theres a tutorial or 2 on here somewhere

I think you may have a couple of different issues, check the wiring plugs on the throttle body and whether you can move the throttle blade by hand with the engine off. Your valve timing may also have jumped teeth, but obviously you need to check things correctly
