## Discrepancy

(CAN) ENGINE STARTED LOSING POWER WHILE IN CRUISE AT 2500 FT & 30 SEC LATER QUIT RUNNING. PILOT INSTRUCTOR MADE A FORCED LANDING IN HAY FIELD. ENGINE WOULD NOT START AGAIN. CARBURATOR WAS REPLACED AND ENGINE STARTED TO RUN NORMALLY AND AIRCRAFT WAS FLOWN OFF FIELD. NOTE: LAST SUMMER A SIMILAR INCIDENT OCCURRED ON ANOTHER OF OUR C-152'S EXCEPT THAT THE ENGINE DID NOT QUIT COMPLETELY AND HE LANDED AT ON AIRPORT.
