That sounds similar to an issue we had years ago with a '98 Oldsmobile. After multiple visits to the dealership, they finally found a crank sensor wire that had worn through the insulation and was randomly grounding itself and faulting.

Clyde, on this episode of Wheeler Dealers, it was a throttle body problem ... not sure this exactly mirrors your issue, but it's worth a look.

It would be pretty awesome if you find the fix from Edd.

It's not limp home mode. No warning lights or messages. Haven't checked for codes, but figure they'll keep till I get back from Lincoln. That would have been pretty nice. I'm still thinking fuel pump is most likely culprit. I also remembered I have a neighbor that I think has an XJR of similar vintage that drag races it and has done a lot of work to it. The fuel pump location and replacement of that sounds to be pretty similar. I should go visit him when I get back.
