A fuel filter being clogged should have more reproducible symptoms. I'm still guessing either a momentarily dropped cam or crank sensor signal, or the idle valve starting to stick at times.

Hey,
This happened to me last weekend. Weather was 85, humid, and my started my car for the day on the way to tennis. I hit the A/C max and all was good until about 5 minutes in my car had the same problem. Lost all power, SES, thankfully no in major traffic. Restarted the car, and haven't had a problem in 300+ miles. Very strange, happens about once every 5 months particularly after driving from a cold start. I am due for some major preventive maintenance, but glad to see that this may be narrowed down to a related problem.
