Default Its electrical...that much I know..

Ok, you may remember me from a month or two ago when I had issues with a Crossfire 150R. I had thought I had fixed the issue with a new spark plug and race CDI. Apparently I was wrong. Now its starts fine and then will just shut off whenever it feels like. If I'm running hard, it starts backfiring and dies. I have checked and rechecked the valves and the carb. I've also checked compression and its good.

If I "jiggle" the whole wad of electrical harness when its running, it will immediately die. If its died and I need to restart it, I jiggle the harness. Now obviosly I have a loose connection right? well...after individually checking each wire when its running...I cant find it. No one wire seems to be the culprit. I'm at a loss and about to just start replacing wires and parts.

I can replace the harness, but what else can I replace that may be causing this problem.

I'm fairly close to insanity at this point...
