Default car shuts down

sometimes when I am slowing down (coasting) and push the clutch in while it is in gear or take it out of gear my car dies. no sputter, no surge just dies. could be doing 5-30 mph not in gear and the car just turns off. it starts right back up or if I am at a roll enough I just put it back in gear and it starts. any clue?

my car started doing that about 2 wks before my dizzy died. apparently I had bearing failure and didn't know it.

I am just typing here, take the cap off the dizzy and see if you see any rust color pouder in there, if so, get a sub assy and rebuild with your other needed good parts that are in your dizzy now.

make sure its the dizzy first, it could be something else. I bought a USDM lude dizzy for my jdm H, and converted it to internal coil when mine died.
