Rev's drop to idle

Hi all,
My latest issue with the '02 Justa.
Driving to work as usual, 70MPH, cruise off, and the engine drops to idle.
Everything else is fine, pushing on gas pedal has no effect on engine rev's , just idles. Pull over, no warning lights, nothing strange, car just sits there and idles. Turn off motor, immediately restart, and everything is fine, engine rev's fine. So into gear and off I go.
Has anyone else ever experience this?
OH, and I am using sprintbooster, in the "green lite" mode, which didn't change.
Very weird.
Thanks
Jeff

im assuming its an auto? if so tranny may be having issues

Ooops my bad, 5 Spd manual

Either you have a bad pedal, sensor ( pedal itself ) which usually throws a code, of there is a miss-connection in the SB to the plug and to the throttle pedal plug.
