Fuel issue. It will quit just like that and make you think its an electrical or a governor problem. After it sits and the carb fills with fuel, it will run again for a while. Probably have to use the choke to make it start and run. They will sometimes flow enough fuel to run around in low gear at high rpm even. But taking off in a higher gear requires an instantaneous burst of fuel and when the carb doesn't deliver, it quits which makes you think the gov is acting up or electrical. If you can run around for a long time in low, then it can't be electrical or the gear wouldn't make a difference.
