Power loss / hesitation at speed

Post by maximillion »

Hi, just got back from a weekend away in the bus and on both journeys, I experienced a loss of power, or more of a hesitation of power, it dropped for a second or two then back etc...

Mainly happened going up hill or under load at over 50 mph or so, after easing off at the crown of the hill it would seam to settle back down - other than that it ran really well happily cruising at 60 or so for the rest of the journey.

Going to check fuel filter and look in the carbs but any other thoughts on where to start!

Thanks
