I'm not quite sure what you are getting is fuel cut. You definately know when this happens as you lose *all* power suddenly. First time it happened to me I almost headbutted the steering wheel as I wasn't expecting it. And as Lumpy says it'll happen more often when its cold.(And yes the 7m does have a knock sensor, 2 of em I think).
I'd get your fuel system and the tuning checked if I were you.
