Still no problems and I had a few fuel cuts this weekend. All I can figure is maybe it got too hot and temporarily made the chip act up. Don't know. The warm day got me by surprise but from now on I'll take measures to keep it cooler like I did last summer.

It doesn't seem like it could be the car, since if the injectors really were dumping fuel like the guino implied, I would either be gaining speed on the downhill, or I would end up with a backfire, or at least something odd in engine behavior.
