Runs poorly cold and stalls when filled up with gas-help me! 850

I couldn't find anything on this in the FAQ's or search engine. Here's my dealeo w/ my '96 850 turbo:

If I don't let the motor warm up, the car will sputter and sometimes stall, especially under low throttle, like 1/4-1/2.
It's the WORST when I fill up the gas tank. It will lope, rev up then down, then up then STALL! This happens EVERY time I fill up, whether it's a full tank top off, or just a few gallons (I've tried both to figure it out).

One day I filled up, it was stalling, so at the gas station, I put in a new fuel pump relay in it, and it didn't help at all.
I'm at my nerve's end, and I need to fill up tonight..Ha.

I was going to replace the fuel filter next, hoping it helps.

Let me know what you know. Thx in advance!

Joe
