Sounds like a fuel filter being partially clogged or/and more than 
likely the case you have a slight air leak in your fuel line.  Not that 
it has happened in my Honda, but it happened exactly as you describe in 
my 1967 international pickup, going down the highway fine at first then 
for no apparent reason it would loose power and die, the after market 
fuel filter had an invisible crack.  I tried tightening the hoses on 
either side, but it wasn't until I replaced the filter that the problem 
stopped.
