My Celeb does DFCO quite a bit on long downhills. My 6000 almost never does it, its done it only about 3 times all winter. My 92 Trans Sport with 3800 never does it. One thing I would like to try sometime is an injector cutoff momentary switch, then open the throttle while cutting fuel to hopefully keep the engine from slowing down as much.
