Default Car stalls after filling up with gas

the last 3 or 4 times i've gotten gas, when i goto start it up, it will stall... like i hafta give it throttle for a while to keep it to hold an idle. i pump with my car off......im in tx and we are having all this crappy *** weather (like most of the country is im sure).. warm a few days, then hella cold...then rainy, then warm and sunny..... could i jsut have a simple case of a shitty fuel filter??? i've also been running good-ole 93 octane but this last tank i got (monday night) i just got 89.....wondering if i run some BG fuel injector cleaner through the manifold to clean up the carbon residue and change the fuel filter if that would sold my problem... anyone else though ever have this problem....

bad fuel filter can burn out your o2 sensor causeing a wrong mixture of fuel and air inside the combustion chamber making the engine die or stall , check the o2 sensor after you changed the filter , also make sure your injector does not have any leaks , to much fuel can stall and engine , this can also be the throttle sticking
