I'm guessing it's on the throttle May just need a clean? But like most things these days it ls a throw away part

Who On Earth told you that!
a throttle position sensor is about £10/15 upwards dependent of brand and model
an entire throttle body, which you shouldn't or wouldn't need to buy brand new, should only be about £20 upwards of youre lucky.
i don't know which model you have, but this is a good example
