A slipping clutch would allow the rev's to increase, so the clutch is not your problem. Sounds too abrupt for a sticking distibutor advance. If the motor cuts out abruptly and violently, I would check the fuel lines around the oil dipstick area. Be sure they are not tie wrapped, or in inimate contact with a hot hose...like the radiator and oil hoses. Another area might be the fuel filter that is starving the motor for fuel. One last area to check is your key ring...do you have too many things on your key ring and it's shutting the ignition "off" intermittently?
