Also, you may think that doing that to the wires is fixing it... try pulling off the road one time and letting it sit for a few minutes, then try to start.
It could be so many things, like a dirty fuel tank, dirty fuel filters, loose venturi in the carb, bad spark plug/wires... I'm just naming a few.
When you loose power, when does it happen? Low on gas? Does it buck and jolt while slowing down? If it does it's probably fuel related. If it doesn't buck, my guess is ignition related.
