Default any idea ?

the first start after fueling , it takes 5 sec to turn over and then i must keep the rpms above 500 for 20 sec or it will drop and kill? seems like i'm having to build up pressure. other then after fueling it starts up like normal and everythings good. any ideas ? its a 98.5 2.8Q manual

do you smell gas?

Could be a # of things... fuel pump, fuel line... possibly a fuel filter, but I don't know.
