mine would do this as well, not all the time but seemed to happen when the fuel was warm under WOT, Came to the conclusion that it was my fuel shut off in my vp was closing so fast that my engine kept pulling fuel and caused an air gap. Try replacing your over flow valve as well there cheap.

Used to happen to me relatively frequently. I take it you probably are not running the most current tunes from Quad? I thought they had solved this problem. I know I haven't had the issue again since upgrading to the V2 Adrenaline. You didn't need starting fluid BTW, all you needed was to bleed the injector lines and it would have started right back up!

i would tend to think that your lift pump isn't keeping up. whats the fuel pressure at idle and at WOT? i would start there. i had this problem once. upgraded the lift pump again and havn't had the issue again.

well the presure seems fine, a lil high on the idle though. maybe try a different tune on your quad.
