Starting problem after refuel?

My 02' 4.4i has trouble starting immediately after filling up with fuel. That's the only time it will do that and it only happens when the engine is warm. It will turn over, just sputter continuously and doesn't want to catch. After several tries it will usually start, but the fact that this happens is quite bothersome. Other than this, it always starts just fine on the first try. Any ideas?

Check your pressure @ the rail right after you fuel up... And then after a normal start... Look for variations... Start listening to the pump surges @ key position 2 before start up
