stick-shift.

I was driving a hill today, and while in 4th gear my RPM's sped up. It felt like I was slowing down and the RPMs went up unmatched the speed at which I was going (I maintained the speed I was going).

It shouldn't be the clutch (it's new).

It almost seemed like I was going in and out of OD, but my OD wasn't no (and it didn't show the signs of a ruined OD later on. I checked by turning on and off the OD and the RPM change was normal).

Could it be a fuel injection screw up?
