Absolutely. Nice work you have found a demon. Be careful replacing the injector relay, the connector on that one is a known weak spot. It sounds like yours the issue is the relay, not the connector, but inspect it carefully when you go in there.

The ECT might be contributing to the hard start or might not. I can;t see the fuel injector relay making the fan run but not sure. You could wait on that one to see what happens after you sort out the fuel relay, but if it has never been replaced, now might be a good time. The ECT also has a fragile connector, be careful! And it really needs to be the factory brand, don't buy a cheap aftermarket ECT.

Just confirming I've been driving my car three weeks without any further issues since replacing the fuel injector relay. I haven't had the cooling fan come on since then so I am waiting on replacing the ECT.
