Dirty MAF, dirty (carboned) throttle body for starters.

The computter actually modulates the throttle in lieu of the IAC.

Your particular 4.6 doesn't have phasers.

So wait I want to make sure I got this clear... My 4.6 does not have cam phasers or an IAC valve? I thought the 4.6 & 5.4 are the same engine but the 5.4 has a bigger bore and diff heads... Am I wrong, close, or way off..????
