Car Bogging When Filled Up With Gas

So when I fill up my car with gas, it idles at like 50-100 RPMs and runs really rough and if I don't step on the gas it'll die. I don't fill it up over than when its full, and it even does this when I just put like five bucks worth of gas in it. So I feel like a little ricer revving it up in the gas station to get it out of its system, and once I do that it's fine. What would be the cause of that? I've tried researching but there's nothing having to do with bogging when you fill up. Any help is appreciated.

There's a prefilter attached to the fuel pump. You may want to check it.

Weird. Mine did that too when I run N/A mode. But when I have my power fc (turbo mode) it's fine. Maybe it's the ecu?? Something needs resoldering or is burnt. Try changing ecu's with a known good one

I might have to check my ECU... I'm running a chipped P28 and it runs great other than that bogging problem and funky idle... but I think that may be because my thermostat is stuck open. I don't know. Haha

So it stopped when I changed my thermostat. And changed the idle except when the car is warming up, when the car is warmed up, it idles fine. Now the low low LOW idle then dying if I don't give it gas is when it's hot out and I've been driving for a while. And sometimes I fill up prior and sometimes I don't. The car seriously sounds like it's cammed, so it's kinda cool? =)
