I'm wonder if my Jeep is starting to have the same problem. It has some what of a delayed start to it. And when I shut it down I hear a noise coming from the fuel tank. Like when you pour a bottle of liquid out really fast and the air bubble has to catch up to fill in the space. Kind of a plunking sound for lack of a better word for it. I've also noticed my idle isn't very stable.
The sad part is it's not something I feel I have the tools or place to do it myself so I think I'll have to take it in to fix it. I talked to a mechanic friend of mine and he said it would probably cost about $200 just to drop the tank so I might as well have the pump/filter replaced as well.
