Has OP (or anyone else, for that matter) found a way to overcome the tendency of all of the sprung weight of this piston/spring conrod contraption to resist the continual changes in velocity due to moving up and down within its cylinder?

That continually varying momentum of the sprung mass, interacting with the elastic nature of the spring itself, is going to set up for some rather undesirable engine speed-dependent harmonic motion.
