The only thing that I can think of would be loss of compression through compression rings on one of the piston. To check for this, use a compression tester on each cylinder and compare the results. If one is noticeably less, you have a compression leak into the rest of the engine. This can cause loss of power and eventually loss of cylinder as the leak gets worse and the compression becomes less in the firing chamber.
