Mercury 9.9 2 stroke dies after throttle down

Hello all!

I have a very strange problem with my engine. The engine alright after couple of pulls and runs alright. After putting it in gear i can throttle up and it will give me full power. No drowning. But after i rapidly throttle down the RPM will decrease to 0... It feels like something in the electrical department but i am not sure.

While running idle i removed the spark plug connection 1 by 1. On 1 cillinder it would instantly stop. On the other it would run on 1 cillinder. With that i concluded one ignition coil was bad since the problem moved when i swapped the coils with the spark plugs. After purchasing the coils the problem still exists. When revving down i can keep the engine alive when giving little bursts of gas. It wants to run and runs fine but it just doesnt pick back up when throttling down.
Do you have any ideas what this could be?
