Default TPS/ETC problems XR6 Turbo Ute

Hi Guys

New to the site.

I was recently acquired 2005 Bf XR6 Turbo ute. It hadnt been driven for a long period of time.

I serviced to car, plugs, leads etc etc. but noticed the car was using a lot of fuel and idling at a higher rpm then normal. The etc light came on a couple times after stopping the car and re starting it just to get me home. I attempted to drive the car the next day but the car once started it sent rpm's over 3rpm and came back to just 1rpm and was running like a bastard and almost stalled. I also noticed that I only had half an accelerator pedal.

After plugging ODB11 scanner on it found the STP/ETC the problem. Cleared codes.

I pulled the intake manifold off to get to the ETC, (found that the rubber joiner had perished, which I have since brought a new one and replaced). found that ETC was I need of a clean. Pulled it off to clean and also the TPS but snapped one of the screws. Brought a recon ETC/TPS from a ford dealer. In stalled the new one.
But when I started the car after installing it the car did exactly the same thing as before I changed. There is no codes coming up on the OB11 scanner.

Looking for advice help.

Cheers
Michael.
