Engine shutdown

I have a silvertop that runs good. If I run the heater and the headlights at the same time it shuts down. It almost acts like a kill switch. Any ideas.

sounds like the load on the alternator could be killing it, i would check the idle air controls to see if there stuck closed

if its dieing at more than an idle this probably isn't your problem
