Probably a faulty coil, ignition switch, or poor harness connection. When it cuts out, don't touch the ignition switch but immediately use a meter or test lamp to check for power at the coil connection coming from the key switch. If power is present, replace coil. if not, tract the circuit back to the fault.

you know.. you've already posted about this here:

it's a new coil.
so far you've already been told what to check. since it's a NEW coil on 6v .. it's very likely NOT the coil. key switch contacts have also been mention.
have you checked any of these.. or?
