I agree with the coil diagnosis. Had an H doing the same thing and it was the coil. Check the coil by holding the end of the lead that comes out of the center of the coil 1/16" to 1/8" away from a good ground (be careful not to have any fuel spills nearby) with very insulated pliers and perhaps some rubber gloves and turn the engine over. If the spark is anything but blue-white (most likely yellow) replace the coil. You may want to do this just when it just starts to cut out. This will give you some spark but show the condition when the coil is hot.
