i'm gonna bet that its your lift pump that is causing the problem. The valves can become "sticky" from nasty wvo. The kit to rebuild the valves is cheap and its a relatively easy job.

It is also possible to clean them out a little bit if you want to go that route but either way you're going to to have to pull it off so i'd just go for the kit if i were you.
