Subject:power drop on freeway at 1/8 throttle

So today on the freeway I was driving along at... er... 100+ miles per
hour accroding to my long gone stupid speedo (approx. 70-75mph).  When I
let off the throttle to slow down a tad to about 1/8 throttle power
seemed to drop off and kind of pull back on my camper a bit.  It only
happens at low throttle and is only noticeable at higher speeds.  Any
good leads before it dive in in this order.  1.  idle switch  2  Fuel
Filter (recently replaced)  3.  AFM   4.  Fuel Reg.

Good Times
