Bit of a heavy load for cruise,

And yes does sound a bit lean, can you richen it up by
20% and observe the effect ?

It feels like a very slight misfire,  press the throttle and it goes away as it richen up the mixture and accelerates  under power perfectly. The target A/F ratio in cruise is 14.7.
