Won't turnover when I finish pumping a full tank of gas?

88, RX-7, NA, 13b, 240k miles on the body, ~95k on the engine

Hello again, I seem to have an issue regarding my car starting every time I need to get gas. I typically drive it until it's all the way to E (not sure if that's useful info or not). This is something that's been occurring for the past month or so; it's also been quite cold outside lately, 25 degrees to 40 degrees fahrenheit. For the most part, starting the car up in the morning is no problem and I can get to work or wherever else I need to. A lot of the time if I'm making a quick stop to the store and leave to crank the car up again, it'll start. Only once has it given me the starting issue from that.

Usually what I've been doing to remedy this start issue is removing the innermost fuse in the engine bay, cranking it without said fuse, placing the fuse back, and cranking it again. But this doesn't always work the first time, and I'm stressing my battery out doing this.

If it won't turn over(Starter rolls engine over) it is electrical.
If it won't START then it is fuel system related
