Hello All, I am need some help diagnosing RPM problem. After about 1.5 hours of cruising at different RPMs (3800, 3400, and 1800) the starboard engine RPM dropped off from 3400 to 2800 and fluctuated, noticeable power dropoff. Starboard ran about 100-150 higher per the sync gauge but engines sounded fine. No noticeable irregular sounds or vibrations. Once the problem occurred, would maintain RPM for about 15 seconds and then drop off at higher speeds, ran ok lower and slower (2200 and <). Engines tuned up with about 6 months ago, and fuel filters changed before event. Filled up fuel tank (76 gallons) and added Quickleen. Recent engine survey had compression at 170, Sea Ray checked starboard #6 at 150 without checking other cylinders. Any help will be appreciated.
