goodolboat, checking the spark at the time of failure is a must. As it topped suddenly it could still be electrical in nature~~don't forget to check the ignition for voltage from the Ign switch. The switch can get intermittent and drive you nuts. It can be checked with a meter or when she fails run wire from a HOT+ feed (battery a good place or the starter feed and take it to the coil + and see if she starts.

With your sediment issues a check of the carb is in order.
