Riding along about 55-60 and engine light came on lost power and she sounded like an elephant farting. Pulled over did visual check and nothing seemed amiss. Checked oil, ok.
Cranked her up and rpm about 2k rumbling sounds and light still on. Limped home at about 20-25mph No power, but did make it home. Anyone have same experience and what is solution? Engine code 65615-7. Help

The code you are getting is for "electronic throttle control actuation".

Do you have a pedalmax/jms throttle box installed? What modifications do you have installed?

Could also be a bad connection at the gas pedal or throttle body, you can unplug/plug them back in a couple times to clean the contacts there. Lastly, we have seen a couple of the gas pedals go bad, which would tyically be handled under warranty at a dealer.

Hope that helps,
Dave

DAVE,
After trying all the suggested tips to resolve rough runner had sling towed to Performance East in Goldsboro. They used electronic wrench and determined that it was throttle issue. Further searching revealed plastic bag containing bolt washers and nut wedged in throttle body. The system worked as advertised and stopped all throttle movement.
As you know I had DDM cold air intake installed at MV. Nothing had been done to sling except to add DDM adjustable shocks, sway bar and brake shoes all installed by dealers or in the case of intake by your crew at MV. Your comments.
