Sea Foam Motor Treatment

You could run a can of Sea Foam motor treatment through the fuel system from the gas tank to clean the fuel system. It does not necessarily explain why you are having a loss of power in a very specific rpm range, but it couldn't hurt and is inexpensive. Here is a link to Amazon that is selling it for $6.97 - Sea Foam SF-16 Motor Treatment - 16 oz. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0002JN2EU..._b5LGybK7W2CFT

While Seafoam may have some benefit, your symptoms point to other causes (and solutions).
