Default Starting problems after getting gas

Hey, everyone. Recently I was having problems starting my car, and couldn't find out when or why it would have problems. Then I found out it only happens when I get gas. The more gas I put in, the longer I have to wait for it to be able to start up. Just getting $5 worth could take about 5-10 minutes before I can get it to start. Any ideas what could be wrong? I have a 2002 LX coupe. Thanks in advance for any help!

Weird.. but would check the fuel pressure regulator and change out the fuel filter and see.
