Well, another short jaunt, and it started again, briefly, then went away.

Symptom: I'm driving (slowly) and all of a sudden the engine stops responding properly: no matter what I do, it won't rev up past 1500RPM, even if I floor the pedal.

If I take my foot off the accelerator, it does the seeking and rough idling as before.

After about 20 harrowing seconds, it kind of cleared up; surged a bit, and then has been fine for the rest of the day.

Bad wire somewhere? This car isn't old enough to have bad wires...
