The fuel system holds enough pressure for the car to briefly start,but not
enough to maintain running unless the fuel pump keeps the pressure up.
The solder problem on the relay PCB makes it -intermittent-,which is why it
works sometimes,but especially not when its hot out.
In all the time you've spent on these posts,you could have resoldered the
relay and discovered if it was the problem or not.
