+studdering and studdering vacuum numbers as you fire 4 out of 6 firing chambers. And I'll reason that on those remaining chambers you can still get some boost once you rev up, but the power is being lost pulling around the 2 dead chambers on one of the rotors.
Were you stressing the motor any when it happend?
