Default Dies when i get gas?

hopefully you guys can help

when i put gas in and start up the car..the car will start then die or sometimes not start at all
i have to try to start it more than once everytime i put even 1 gallon of gas in..this starting happening about the beginning of this month..what could be the problem?
*LS motor into Civic*

question two..kinda off topic..but will an 00 SI exhaust fit a LS header? are they the same length or if i buy one from a site do i get a civic one or integra one?

thanks!

Try to do a diagnostic troubleshoot. What's cutting out, fuel? electrical power? Honda has some problem electrical paths, like the main relay or the ignition switch. Post the findings of your tests.

I had this problem with my 92 eg6 not too long ago. I could drive the car for days but after I would get gas it would take forever to start... It turns out that I needed to change my main relay, I'm still not 100% sure why but it definately solved the problem.

sounds like something is not holding pressure, but what?

I had this problem happen to me twice this summer. I just turned the key on and off 5 times to prime the injectors and it fired right up.
