I have a bubbling sound when i first start the car. It makes the noise for about 10-15 seconds and then it goes away. It does not happen every time when the vehicle is started. Thanks for any help.

air accumulation inside the fuel pump.
replace the fuel strainer inside the tank.
if the sound becomes continues, replace the pump.

Hey How are you doing Sleepwalker? How do I get to the area for the fuel strainer?
Thank You

you only got two lines connecting to the fuel tank. (not to mention the vent pipe). the suction and return pipe.
the suction pipe is connected directly to the base of the fuel strainer. after removing the suction pipe (this line goes to the fuel pump and filter), you will notice something that has two pin slots for turning it out.
please try to empty the tank first.
check also if your car got fuel accumulator. check if it's still okay.
