Is this a leaky fuel injector? How can I confirm? I'm headed from Phoenix to Denver in a couple of weeks, is there something I should be looking at before I go?

You might be able to search the archives for the 'proper' answer. I seem to recall it is due to excessive pressure is building up in the fuel system. Once started, the pressure lowers back to normal. Try putting a fuel pressure guage on the fuel rail and see what is going on. I doubt if it would be a single leaky fuel injector. Thanks, Mike B.
