Had a similiar incident with my building buddy when I was safety pilot for him while he practiced his IA's in his Cozy MKIV. Engine lost power as we were climbing out and then the engine started shaking so bad we thought a prop blade departed the hub on his 3 blade MT. Cylinder #4 went completely dead pretty quickly. Long story short, when I started pulling plugs, # 4 was wet and all the others were coated with soot. Started pulling injectors and found #4 with a particle of some substance blocking the orifice. Poked it out and cleaned all the injectors in Hoppe's #9. All good. Hope your problem is as EZ to fix.

Default RV-10 Engine data review

I use cirrusreports.com

it uploads lots of data from your SD card for every flight.

Good visualization of engine parameters.

If you have any questions feel free to PM anytime.

The data didn't lead to it, but a quick look by an A&P and they think a stuck exhaust valve might have been the culpret.
