I had the exact same problem. It was my injectors leaking down. After running, the injectors leak the fuel into the cylinders, causing them to flood. That is why it is hard to start, after sitting for a little while. When you get gas, the car is only typically shut off for a few minutes - not long enough to give you any real grief.

I removed the injectors and had them cleaned and it solved the problem.

Good luck!
