RPM drop while operating

I have a komatsu that the engine rpm will drop for 1-2 second then pick back up. This repeats randomly. I have swapped accelerator pedal position sensor, injector, lock off valve vaporizer and baro sensor with all known good parts. The problem still persists. What have I missed?
