have you had a look at your advance and retard unit? in the wiring loom leading to this there is a braded wire with thin insulation which sometimes wears through and arcs across causing your ad and retard unit to fight against itself so when you put your foot down it actually stops the fuel causing engine stop.. worth checking.

Could check / clean EGR valve and throttle body .This should help you .
