check your filler neck for your tank. if that has a leak in it it will cause an evap leak and cause problems fueling up. as for the starting issue my car just started doing something similar. I am gunna dig into it this weekend and i will let you know what i find.

I guess I did forget to mention that my car has had problems filling up to where i have to hold the filler to a slow pace or it will just stop. It does get really annoying. I have yet to fix the filler neck as well.

Ahhh i was hoping you fixed the filling up problem. No one seems to know why, i hate getting gas during the winter time though. I pulled out my filler neck in 2014 and put water through it and there was no leak. I've had the filling up problem since 2013...

my car used to do this, but it cranked much longer, the problem was the fuel pressure regulator, one way to test it is to plug it to a fuel pressure tester, they rent those at autozone, another way i heard is to disconnect the hose to it, and if fuel leaks out it has failed or is failing, hope that helps some
