I've had similar problems in the past but there's a really useful tool that comes with the developer toolbar [1] for firefox. If you go to the CSS dropdown and click on view style information (or ctrl+shift+y) then you can click on any element to see all the CSS that applies to it, that way you can eliminate unnecessary styles and/or re-plan the code.
