I had those symptoms when my Mass Air Flow (MAF) sensor was begiining to fail. I didn't have the Check Engine Light go on until the third or fourth incident.

A little later I had a problem with my evaporative emssion system and needed to replace a hose and check valve. I don't know whether the two problems were related.

Are you "topping off" the tank after the pump cuts off? If you are, you might want to stop doing that and see if that helps.

It has happend about 4 times in a row. Normally I would stop fueling after the autoshut off. But the last time I got gas I only put 20 bucks in and it still had to be cranked to start. Monday I'm taking it down to the machinic to have him look at the codes again.
