It sounds like one of your throttle cables could be slightly hanging up
during power reduction. I had a similar problem with my 912Ul. I lubed the
cables, that helped for a while but I finally ended up replacing them with new
Teflon sleeved cables and that solved the problem.
Also check the "swivel nuts" at the carb throttle arms for freedom of
movement. If one sticks during movement this can also cause one carb to go
momentarily out of sync.

The datasheet for Permatex 9AR says it is not to be selected as a sealant for strong
oxidizing materials. Unfortunately, that's what ethanol is.

Hey Mike-
I'm no chemist but see the data sheet you linked says:
"Chemical / Solvent Resistance
The product retains effective properties in contact with automotive fluids, such
as motor oil, transmission fluids, alcohol and antifreeze solutions."
...and the card pack guide also says:
"A high tack, pliable gasketing sealant and plastic and metal pipe fitting sealant.
Resists gasoline, gasohol, kerosene, oils, lubricants, water, antifreeze,
and mild acids. Designed to resist high temperatures, vibration, fuels and oils
of today's engines."
So... what to think? In any event, recommended by Kitfox and leak free to date
(knock wood) on my M-III panel and wing tank fittings.
