Engine died at 80+ mph

Still waiting on the relays. I hope to have them Monday or Tuesday. After that it's wait to see if the problem reappears. From what I understand the throttle body replacementissue was with earlier models correct? I believe my 2001 (built in late 2000) has a different TB than the earlier problematic ones.

I met another jag owner (older female, 1999 xk8) and she said she had a highway incident also occurred on her, but only once. 70mph, down to 20 w/ Restricted Performance shown on the message center. She didn't seem to interested to hear what we were discussing on here either that might help her. Could be she was drinking...but who knows.

good one. But when I say older... I mean older than me. I met her in the parking lot, as we came in together and parked next to one another. It was natural to start talking about her ride. She had it painted after an accident to that old, pale blue of the thunderbird era, from its original beige. Its not even close to the zircon.

And the way I see it, receiving no reply is not always a bad thing. More often than receiving a satisfactory resolution, or a thanks, you will receive a slap in the face. From the person you were trying to help, or another poster who's sole purpose in chiming in was to play the one-upmanship game. Nothing really gets done on here but the clock.

Since this thread seems to be getting a lot of attention, I would like to take this chance to say THANKS to jagtech, brutal and the others on this site who actually know what the hell they are doing. You guys take the time to dispatch a lot of useful information on here for free. I know that I really appreciate and value what you guys have to say and I'm sure others do as well. So once again.....THANKS!
