1999 Toyota 4Runner — long crank only after filling the fuel tank

1999 Toyota 4Runner SR5, about 211,500 miles. The car starts normally most of the time, but after filling the tank it occasionally cranks longer and runs rough for a few seconds. Could EVAP/purge behavior cause this, and what would you test?

Write down what you already tried. A second data point from another 1999 Toyota 4Runner owner helps more than a generic diagnosis. Then you'll know the next fork. A shop burned me once by skipping that step. If this is nothing, great. I want that in data.

Useful. I'll report back after I verify that on my 1999 Toyota 4Runner. I'm in no rush to be a hero on it.
