You could try passing a second ground wire and run it for a time to see if it still happen?

Being that it is intermittent and seems to be all or nothing, working as normal or running bad, its hard to imagine a fuel pump failing in that way, unless there is an obstruction in the tank.

Perhaps its worth a look at least as I have heard of one fuel pump that broke free from its brackets and was hanging loosely in the tank by its hoses.

You never know if someone has shoved a plastic bag up the fuel noozle so the next person pumping gas gets it in his fuel tank.
