I'm no expert either, but there is a mechanism which advances the ignition spark as the engine speed increases. If the mechanism does not work, the spark is not advanced resulting in a sluggish engine.
The electronic ignition cannot wander off like a mechanical one can, so it's probably not the cause of your problems - unless it's defective.
What happened / changed since it last ran fine?
