did you properly adjust the throttle body after you ran the car for a little bit to make sure it opens properly

Hey lets just say, BBK throttle bodies have been know for issues in the 4.0s, that's why I haven't changed mine. Whether it may be the case or not, I am not sure. Remove the throttle body, and return to stock, disconnect battery for a few minutes and plug it all back together and see if the wrench light comes back on again, if not that was the problem.
