Have you tried Jim's fuel pump relay check when it cut out?  It does sound just
like problem I had with mine.

If not, are you running below half a tank of gas?  Could be the fuel isn't
filling up the internal reservoir in the tank due to blockage in the tank
inside.

If you hadn't aleardy changed the coil, I'd wonder if that was getting hot and
cutting out - that's another fairly common problem, particularly with newer
coils.
