Same problem as before?????? Flip the key off and on and see if it clears it?

Read codes.

Do the usual.

Could be fuel starvation. Blocked filter or kinked fuel hose most likely causes.

you see the 3.0 engine is a conversion from a 2.2 the loom was built for the car but the plug for the throttle sensor was the newer shape one and there was a newer shape tps but she needed the older shape plug and sensor :)
