I wouldn't rule out a weak coil and saturated plugs. I fought carb problems all fall. Even when it ran great with the carb in good shape and flowing fuel, it didn't have the power to pull up a hill in anything above low gear.
Anyway a new coil, plugs, plug wires, and points fixed it. Can't say which one fixed it but probably the coil and then the plugs in that order. I had already changed the condenser with no help but that could be your culprit. Most of my plugs were wet when they came out. I agree with one poster when I asked about it on an earlier thread that once plugs get fouled and saturated from flooding, they just never clean up and dry out. I've cleaned countless lawn mower spark plugs, even used a torch on them, with no help but a new one fired right up.
If you are having fuel starvation problems it will just quit running. Then as the carb refills, it will restart. From what I hear, a weak coil may act about the same.
