I replaced the Camshaft position sensor.
However, the car still surges at idle when the A/C is on. Is it most likely the Idle Air Controller(?), I think I read somewhere on here.

Idle Air Controller. Sometimes it just helps to take it off and clean it before you go ahead and change it.

Awww man! Crewzin that engine bay is clean and tight!

It puts my poor "ShuggaPlum" to shame.

Thanks. There's quite a few us on the forum that take pride in keeping the engine bay and the whole cruiser in tip top shape.

Now I get to add a bad lower right Motor Mount to the list of things wrong with my PT.

I'm having it replaced right now, AND getting new set of Goodyear Triple Treads.

If all this STILL does not eliminate my 60MPH+ steering wheel vibration, I'm gonna lose it.
