This was with 1/4 tank of fuel remaining.

Certainly scared the crap out of me (thought I did something catastrophic). Anyone else have this problem recently? And has there been a solution?
In my case it was fuel starvation but it was from undersized injectors . Test you're fuel pressure and make sure that is adequate as a starting point . Are you stock , tuned , FI ?
