Tune glitch: Should I worry?

Tune glitch: Should I worry?
I have been running a CAI and package of Brenspeed 87-89-93 tunes for about a week. I have to say that the 93 tune puts a big ol' grin on my face every time I step on the gas pedal I've tried out all of the tunes to compare them. I'm having a strange problem. I upload the tune according to the instructions. Often on the first run after changing tunes, I will go about a mile and then my engine will start to stall and I'll get a "limp home" [wrench] light on the dash. If I turn off the ignition and restart, often the light will go away and the tune will run great. Sometimes I have to reload the tune, and sometimes I just have to restart a couple of times without reloading. Once I get it going, though, the car runs great. I've had the 93 tune in for several days without a glitch. Brenspeed says this is a random error and I shouldn't worry about it. Anyone else have this problem? How can I tell that my engine is running lean? I wouldn't want to risk serious engine damage because the tune is flakey.

If you were running lean you'd throw a CEL. I'd stick with it and if it continues to worry you, ask them to review and rewrite the tune. This is a strange one for sure.
