Narrative:While flying at 4000 feet, engine operation began to deteriorate. Initially, this was manifested by intermittent coughing/missing but over the next few minutes RPM and power output decreased to the point where altitude could no longer be maintained. Engine instrument indications were all normal and throttle movement or carburettor heat application did not rectify the problem. The engine finally lost all power and the pilot commenced a forced landing. The aircraft came to rest in a rock-strewn paddock, sustaining damage to the right landing gear support structure. A subsequent inspection of the engine revealed no internal faults that could have contributed to the power loss.
