It would be like the points opening prematurely and firing a spark plug too early. Worth checking as well as the carburetor. I had a truck at one time that would backfire and die. I replaced the resistance wire from the ignition switch to the coil before determining that the coil connection (slip-on type) was loose. A quick squeeze with pliers fixed it.
