Does it act up driving up hills ? slugish ? that would usually indicate a bad pump. But to have it be harder to start depending on the level of the fuel in tank still leads me towards a back pressure issue , if there is a vacuum build up in the tank as you burn out more fuel the pump has to work harder and harder to get the fuel up to your injectors. Making the car harder and harder to start , when you checked by pulling off the cap was it with the car running and after you had been driving it for a while ? If your not sure try even taking your cap right off for a while and see if it makes a diff starting when you are low on gas.

Better to sit in silence and be thought stupid , then to open your mouth and remove all doubt.
