hesitates/stumbles w/full tank gas 850 1993

Just wondering if anyone else has seen this. After I fuel up with a full tank of gas, the car will hesitate and stumble from a stop light for about 5-6 seconds and then the car will accellerate normally from then on. It's wierd because it won't do it when the tank is less than almost full!
I should add that the car also has an occassional starting problem. On the first crank, whether cold or hot, it will not start. When I turn the key off and turn it on again to start, it will always start. The car never stalls or refuses to start on second try. I just wish the days of it firing up a split second after I hit the ignition were still here!
What should I start replacing, fuel pump relay, fuel pump itself, regulator?
I replaced plugs, wires, cap, air and fuel filters fairly recently.
Thanks guys!!
