2nd time car has left me stranded in 1 week

Last week it gave the the CEL and half power lights, brought me to a stop, shut off and wouldnt start back up. Brought it to the shop(specializes in these cars), they could not replicate the issue and therefore could not pinpoint my issue. Fastforward to yesterday, and it has done it again. I think i was pulling a p101 permanent code, but it almost seems like the low pressure pump is bad. The HPFP (that is also relatively new) cannot pressurize what it doesn't have. What do you guys think?

check fuel psi on the fuel rail when it strands you.. can be bought for 40 -50 bucks, maybe even less.. reset gauge, hook up, crank - go back to check what the psi is.. should be 50-55

wish I had my important tools with me where I live...I own that tool. I'm willing to bet it'll show low. Yesterday and today it starts up for about 1 second, sounds normal, then dies. Codes are: P306F, P0087, P10EE.
P10EE I can't seem to find what that is. The other 2 show low fuel pressure.

Based on your codes, it's still a fuel pump problem:

Yes, you may have replaced the HPFP recently, they are notorious on early failure.
Check your low pressure fuel pump line pressure first to confirm that's to specification; if so, then the HPFP is to blame... again...

new tank pump and still won't stay running. same codes, CEL is now on. he was looking for the relay, but then he says it's the pump. I think I'll call the company I bought the HPFP from and get a replacement.

i talked to the retailer that sells these new or reman, and they wanted the codes off of the car. that last guy in your link hadwhat looks to be all the codes I had the first time actually. but they were looking for a code I did not have, but then again I know I didn't get that code the first time around. I think they have an actual MINI diagnostic scanner, while I have just a Centron. But they will replace it. I'll replace it again but this is really weird and aggravating now.

Where did you buy that pump? Might be worth the expense to get one from FCP Euro….

just called them again. they keep telling me i should be getting this certain P code that I am not pulling up, otherwise the pump is likely not at fault. The same code they're telling me about I wasn't even getting the LAST time around when I replaced this damn thing.
I am waiting to hear back. Apparently I need to speak to the guy that deals with these more in depth and they will test the pump.

UPDATE: Got the replacement pump in, same company, and I just put it in this evening. Car ran until I went to restart it. Now it will not run, and it seems to pull the same codes.
