I had the same problem on my Jx,
I never got to the bottom of the issue, Thought it could be air getting in the fuel, the exhaust manifold is blowing on mine so didn`t know if this is the issue. She`s been of the road for a few months and haven`t got around to looking at it.
I was going to start with manifold, New filters, non return valve in the fuel line and then maybe stripping fuel pump and overhalling it. :ok
