sounds like the pmd is out again. get it off the intake and stick it behind the bumper or anywhere else that doesn't get radiant heat. from experience I have learned to always have at least one "known to be good" pmd on hand to swap out.

DTC 65 - Accelerator Pedal Position 3 Circuit Range Fault
DTC 78 -Turbo Wastegate Solenoid Fault

throttle peddles do fail and sometimes just need cleaning?
Check out the vac system.

Intake is the worst possible location for a remote PMD-under/behind the frt bumper ot behind the grill with a 6' extension harness from a reliable vendor like angelofishes on ebay or Leroy Diesel.

Every electronic 6.5 owner should have a spare known working PMD properly mounted on a heatsink with him at all times-its not if they are gonna fail but when?
