I missed the top part of your earlier response that mentioned SPICE. I only saw what was below the quote. As a result, I wasn't aware anyone had definitive transit times yet. I was just trying to help based on the numbers I had happened to see during testing.
As for a weird orbit, I feel like you are calling me out or something? I just meant that in the context of the method I had attempted to use to predict the position, which failed so badly. That method was developed for distant satellites like Phoebe. I am working on a better approach today, which will hopefully get Iapetus back on track. Titan and Hyperion have already been tightened up through 2030.
