After 15-20 minutes of running wide open the engine gradually slowed down a bit, ~.3-.4 knot, but the change could be felt adn heard. Around that time I anchored (we were RC) and when I turned the engine back on later all was good but this is the second time it has happened. Any suggestions on what to look for? Thanks, :)bill

I am thinking fuel filter, I read in other threads of gradual power loss and the fuel filter was suspect.
