ETC-Failsafe mode / Throttle Body ?

on the cars with etc if maf fails or is disconnected they do go into failsafe mode. I know this from experience:) now if air is sneaking in around the maf I do not "believe" the system goes into failsafe mode (although that will cause other issues) as I forgot to plug a breather hose back in once and just got a lean code (no failsafe mode).

so your maf could be bad or (my guess) #3 or 4 coil going bad and the rf is whacking out the whole system.
 
Yes, it's V8.

The engine ran perfect right up to the time it died both times, no rough idle, low rpm stutter or any sign of misfiring if that helps.
 
sounds like definitely "could" be MAF then.
