If the tach goes way down with the loss of power before pushing in the clutch its a good bet the problems in the distributor pick up. Did you check for spark when you had the no start? Do you have a CIS pressure test gauge? you can tape it to the wiper blades and make sure fuel pressure is not falling off. Also you can tap off the fuel pump to a meter or idiot light and check for loss of power to the fuel pump when it happens. This can be tricky, as it takes a good ignition signal to the fuel pump relay to keep it on. Also next time you get a no start, take a piece of wire and jump the fuel pump relay. Mine gave weird signs when it went out.
