You could have taken a big gulp of air from the fuel tank. How full is your tank? The TD has a horizontally mounted tank so is more sensitive to low fuel than the sedans. On mine, if the tank is low and I go around a sharp corner, the engine will cut out because all the fuel sloshed to one side exposing the pick up to air.
