I should have time tomorrow to re-un-swap the chips/ECUs to see if it keeps doing this.

It's wet and starting to get cold, though and there is nothing I hate more than pulling that ECU... What a drag.
I PUT THEM IN THE WRONG SLOTS LOL.

Car is running [poorly] again, the diagnostics will continue until morale improves...

ECU has been ruled out. I heard today that the ECU was suggested as a source of the problem because the injectors were acting weird. This is the first time I heard that the injectors may not be functioning properly. Lately I have been watching a lot of "cars with similar problems" videos and have been leaning towards a fuel problem, so I am confident we are moving in the right direction (or so says the person who put the chips in backwards).
