Surprised that no one has suggested testing for spark when the engine cuts out (unless I have missed it). You need to make sure you have no spark before condemning the CDI. Might be fuel?
When the engine next cuts out check for a spark; easier said than done if you are on your own as you need someone to operate the starter while you are at the back checking a plug for a spark. Suggest you carry a spare plug rather than attempt to remove one and find a buddy to go with you.
