...claas900 mentioned grounds, but it 's a good point made about basic cables., etc. And being an '02, it might also need the stator shielding update. You can check the charging output by just comparing voltage at the battery when off, and when running. After low-voltage stalling, they can still start again, and often do while you limp back to camp!

a. fuel fittings
b. clogging fuel filter
c. gummed up tank clunker screen
d. all of the above

run a tube directly from a gas can into the fuel filter and test again.
It might even suck up and over the filler neck, if you just stuff a separate tube into the tank for bypass testing (haven't tried that). If no improvement, try again with a fresh filter. You'll probably find the problem. Also note the return spurt to the tank, before and after, at idle and revved.

Yes there is an inline filter between your gas tank and the fuel pump. There is also a screen attached to the pick up tube inside the tank.

Race gas will run richer.Maybe you are set extremely lean,injector failing,lack of fuel supply.
