914 RPM problems

Hi all, hope someone can help.
First I had a electrical failure and I lost my fuel pumps. I made a forced landing...no damage...
After fixing this problem I flew and got problems with my RPM. Always changing between 4800 and 5100 RPM.
Maintenance did a great job and cleaned all carburators and did a complete check (100h). Flew Gyrocopter home...no problems. Today, one day later i flew 4 patterns. First and second no problems.
At the 3rd after takeoff I had a blinking orang boost light for 2 seconds. I reduced power and continued. While changing thrust I had the feeling the power did not change very responsive. It always had a lack between moving throttle and changing of power. Same feeling on the 4th pattern although I am very alerted at the moment and probably a bit over reacting.
At the ground I advanced throttle to full power and reduced to 4900 RPM. No problem at all.
Has anybody an idea what could be the reason? Or where I should start to look?
