ignition coil. mine did the same thing cept i was driving normal and it bogged then died, i coasted it onto a side street. later, after removing the dizzy cap, there was copper wire shredded all inside of it. not quite sure how it happened but it did.

pull the dis. cap off. your rotor might have broken off. happened to me twice, and at speed as well. the little set screww falls off and bounces around and shorts thing out.
