Could be any of the other suggestions, maybe the fuel pump.

I agree it is probably electrical - but doubt it is the battery. The alternator should run the engine without the battery once started. I had a similar problem and ended up being very difficult to find but was wiring insulation worn through from rubbing on a bracket and intermittantly shorting out. Simple to fix once it was found.
