Continuing fuel problem 850 1996

When the FPR went out on my 850, it only affected cold start -- long cranks every morning, black puff of smoke out the exhaust, and a shakey idle. Once warm, no other problems.
Yours soulds like the charcoal cannister is full of raw gas. Next time you tank up, make sure you take the nozzle out after it clicks off, or only put in X gallons. The only way to purge the cannister is to run the car for several hours. ROAD TRIP!! Go somewhere nice for lunch.
