Narrative:The aircraft was on approach to Apollo Bay and the pilot had just reduced power to commence descent from 9000 feet when a rattling noise started. The engine then began to vibrate and run roughly and would only deliver partial power. The aircraft entered cloud at approximately 3500 feet and broke out of the cloud base at about 2600 feet. By this time, there was not enough power to maintain level flight, so the pilot elected to land uphill in a paddock. The pilot reported that he was a little high on approach, and after touchdown the aircraft ran 150-200 metres before going through two fences and hitting a tree.
