I had a conversation with the transmission shop who thought it was not the trans but a fuel problem. I thought that was possible, but I couldn't immediately figure out why.

The problem was hard to re-create, and I didn't take into the shop because I didn't want get a shrug diagnosis.

After much research and thought over the last couple months, I decided to swap out my BWD boxed FPR, new from O'Reilly 12-18 months ago, to the Bosch 0280160249 (painted black ver. of 0280160294). Problem so far seems to be fixed!

There was some gasoline smell in the vacuum line, not strong but enough. FPR is such an easy swap, I figured I couldn't lose.

I plan to make further updates to confirm problem fixed.
