Glad to hear it.
Things like that will happen from time to time. More than likely its something as simple as a dirt particle landing on the MAF.
I wouldnt worry much about it.

There is an old proverb that race drivers over here know very well and it says: if you are uncertain keep the gas open. Maybe they are right ?

I certanly always follow that proverb.

Cheers.

Definitely either a MAF or O2 sensor. No big deal either way. If it comes back, you can figure out which one it is, and even which specific O2 sensor it is, by picking up a scanner with live data. They are $100 on ebay.
