Check fuel pressure is where I'd start.

Could be fuel pressure related. Worth a check, agreed.

Usually 120 to 150 an hour. Can get expensive quick.

Thanks to all for your assistance.
Can I just change the fuel pressure regulator or must the fuel pump also be replaced?

Before throwing parts at this, I would also check the operation of the auxiliary fuel control box mounted on the passenger fender wall. Your servicing mechanic may give us a call for the diagnostic procedures. www.callawaycars.com
