...I hope...
I put in a NEW O2 sensor, as opposed to a "probably still good" sensor,
and changed the fuel filter. I actually think the filter is what really
did the trick. Oddly, my mileage seems to have dropped back down to
normal, and the engine seems cooler. I will look at the plugs in a few
days but based on how it is running (fantastically) I think it is fixed.
I am guessing it was fuel starved but the symptoms sure led me down a
bizarre path for a while. The check engine light is staying off now and
no codes are logged.
