Something similar happened to me with my 87 - I went through a puddle at speed and could feel the water hit the floor boards. Engine cut out, but I was able to restart it. A couple days later, the car would not start. Short version - after several weeks of trouble shooting, it turned out to be cracked solder joints in the DME. Based on information I found in other threads, I opened the DME and examined the board, re-soldered the faulty joints, and have been fine for many years.

My guess would be that going over the bumps opened the cracks, shutting down the DME signal. Just a suggestion to look over the DEM with a good magnifier. Another thing to eliminate as a culprit.
