90% of carburetor problems are ignition. It could be coil failure.

Cracks in the internal windings open when the coil heats up, and close when it cools down. Imagine a spool of wire expanding with heat. The outermost wires would be under pressure from those within.

I suppose a simple spark test after it stalls would verify this type of failure.

Good luck, Kurt, currently in Bath, England spotting cars.
