Going uphill, you'll progressively run richer. Going downhill might could be a problem--you could get leaner as you go down. So you may need to flip the ignition switch at some point. If you have a nav system you can keep an eye on altitude, or if you have a palm you can watch baro. Only matters if you switch the car off at the top of the hill.
That's why I paid the extra $$ for MAPdaddy
