I'm having a similar problem with my 1986 900 so maybe describing it might help Gabe. In my case, starts fine, runs fine for 10, 15, or 20 minutes--the colder the ambient temp, the longer it runs well--then stutters, idles rough, loses power, and stalls unless I heel and toe to stop. It will start again, so I've not been stranded yet. If it cools for a while, it will run fine again for at least a few minutes. I've replaced plugs, distributor cap and rotor, and tested spark from the coil after it stalls. All ok, so don't think it's electrical, but what else could it be? I've survived the winter, but warmer days are starting to really cause problems. Thanks.
