You should first test the computer system for trouble codes.you may have overfilled the gas tank and flooded the carbon canister that holds the gas fumes from the tank, i would look for trouble codes first though,as filling the tank and the problem ocurring after that may only be coinsidental,this would be hard for you to diagnos anyway.

Have a 95 Saturn sl just got it was running great after top off with fuel started running rough when in gear real bad idles rough also

Was there a tanker truck filling the stations tank while you were refilling?
You may have got some dirty gas.
When the stations tanks are being refilled dirt gets stirred up from the bottom of the tank.

My truck idles fine when i put in gear it runs for vabout 1 block then it act like it is not geting any gas if you wait for a little bit it acts fine for about 1 block

It sounds like the fuel filter needs to be replaced. It sounds like it is partially clogged and cannot let enough fuel through for regular use and speed.

Immediately after I fill the gas tank and start the engine, the engine idles really rough and dies several times. I have to keep the idle up around 2500 rpms for several seconds and then the problem goes...

their is a vapour pump on the engine which is meant to stop the loss of fuel vapour and i think it may be sucking in petrol thats going straight into the inlet manifold .to test my theory when you fill up next leave the filler cap loose and see what happens

Chugs, acts like it's not getting gas once warmed up. Idle's fine

This problem can be several things. When your engine is cold, your computer is in a "closed loop" and just pretty much keeps the engine running until warmed up. After reaching operation temperature, the computer starts reading all the sensors. If one sensor is not connected or is defective, you will experience performance problems. Most of the time this will turn on the check engine light, but not always. Second is the fuel pump. This too will cause erratic engine problems.
