I had exactly the same problem years ago with a - wait for it - Daihatsu
Cuore 850. Great little car, but it would die on me on the motorway. What
happened was that the carb venturi got filled with ice (combination of damp,
cold air and rapidly falling pressure), thus messing up the mixture.
Paying attention to the air intake solved the problem. The shield around the
exhaust manifold had partly rotted away on my car, so the air taken in was
too cold.
Hope this helps.
