I concur with John Walkers Workshop about the infamous "green wire" problem. I had similar problems last year however in my case it usually happened when I was accelerating and I had a complete loss of power.... I contacted Bob Ashlock who actually rebuilds the CDI boxes and he recommended I check the green wire and BINGO!! What I was told to do, was get the car up to temperature, and then park it leaving the engine idling and take the green wire which runs directly off of the side of the distributor and wiggle it back and forth. When I did that the car immediately died. The green wire "looked" perfectly fine. I changed the green wire and have no problems since.
