Well, folks, it seems that everything's solved! With 100+ miles safely driven
around town, I tackled the 500mi round trip to see my parents with no bucking
episodes. In fact, I drove with the AC on the whole way home! Gas mileage on
the way up (which had more top down driving and less AC) was about 28-29mpg but
the return trip was barely 26-27mpg.
Either way, no bucking! The periodic cycling of the AC Compressor did scare me
a little bit, but no issues in the end.
It looks as if the problem all along was the Cam Position Sensor.
This trip was important partially because it was basically a "dress rehersal"
for my trip to Miatas at the Gap at the end of July. I feel much more
confident now that it'll make the trip safely!
We'll see how things work out, but it seems that all's well. Thank you all for
your patience and time!
-Bryan
