    Welcome to CHR.
    I think that you need to hook up your vacuum advance. At part throttle when cruising you have less air and fuel in each cylinder, and the air-fuel mixture is not as densely packed compared to WOT. Getting this mixture to burn completely takes more timing. I think you're getting surge because of unequal burn between cylinders. Here's a really good explanation of vacuum advance - (link)
