It doesn't sound liek the fuel pump. Somebody on the thread you linked suggested that there was a leaky fuel injector. I've seen on other cars where pressure was put to the fuel system with the car off. If it didn't hold, the problem is in that system.
I am assuming that you checked all the codes, correct?
Next, how many miles do you have on the car. There was also a suggestion for changing out plugs. Sounds like a complete tune up wouldn't be a bad idea.
You could have an issue with coils. Many moons ago, I would sell coils that went out for no apparent reason. A friend of mine had something like this happen with his caddy and it turned out to be two bad coils.
this probably isn't much help but I hope it might get you in the right direction. Just my $.02 ... apply it to the repair bill and keep the change
