over here in the Boston area it's been about 40 degrees on average recently, pretty cold, as we are getting into the winter.

today, randomly, it is about 65 degrees out.

when I was in 3rd gear and gave it some kick (i.e. anywhere over 3500 RPM), the engine choked to the point where I was wondering if I accidentally had my foot on the brake. happened a couple more times thereafter. somewhat worrisome as I started wondering if its due to my new BPV, or what.

now that the car is adjusted to the warmer air though (a few hours later), it is running so sweeet. getting BPV 'pings' on all shifts.... yay. (nana)
 
That crap always used to happen with my DSM. Huge temp changes caused freak outs. My wifes honda does it too. It went from 35deg and raining to 50 deg and dry the next morning and the car didn't want to start for a few seconds.

Normal.
