car has problems starting after filling up?

so this has been a problem since the b16a3 swap...

everytime i put gas into my car and then try to start it up afterwards, it starts, then dies right after....then i have to sit there and crank it over for about 10 seconds before it starts up again....dont know why...

its getting annoying, any ideas?

^X2! I had the same problem; come to find out I had two minor breaks in the solder on the back of the MR wafer board.

He's probably right, had the same problem with my EG (D15B) after swap. I replaced it with another stock one, worked fine since!!!
