cept my warranty is done for.

How are you supposed to service anything on the throttle body without removing this clamp? Ford wasn't so dense as to make it one-time use were they?

lol. you must not know ford very well.
call the customer service line and see if they can help you. you mentioned it while you were in warranty and got declined.
personally what i would do is put a regular clamp on it

I would put a normal clamp on there cept for the rubber keys on the intake plumbing would make a normal clamp a PITA to install.
Yeah, I know not of Ford's customer service. Got a phone number I can call?

I will say I'm still pretty happy with this car. I honestly can't see why they didn't sell better than they did. Must be the SUV mentality that Americans were going through in the late 90's/early 00's.
