If they are soaked then you know you have some fuel, so it is probably spark. If they are dry then you probably have a fuel issue. Could the relay have failed again? Could a grounded wire from the relay change be disconnected/loose? A multimeter could really help with demonstrating basic power to these areas.

Just throwing this out there, sorry if you mentioned this already but did you test the battery voltage and made sure your battery terminal is not corroded? I had a BMW that had a similar issue in the past, fixed it by simply cleaning the terminal connecting points of corrosion.

Checked engine wire harness today. No apparent damage anywhere. Post on the alternator broke off (of course) so now I ordered one of those. If it runs when that's in, I'll go until it dies again. Otherwise I'll replace the fuel pump and see what happens

I would pull a spark plug and have someone turn over the motor and check for spark. If that is good then I would pull the fuel rail feed line, get a bucket and a hose and test for fuel output. If you lack output then check the line going to the fuel pressure regulator. If no output, and you said you replaced the fuel filter already, then consider the fuel pump. You can pull the pump and bench test it in a bucket or just replace it. Fuel, compression and spark. The basics should be easily diagnosed.

If you think you have fuel delivery then buy a $35 endoscope on Amazon and put it down your intake manifold to verify the injectors are firing if you don’t want to pull them to bench test them. And definitely pull a spark plug and turn over the motor to check for firing. Check it to see if it is soaked or dry too after attempting to start the car.

If it turned over, meaning it sputtered when making a few combustion strokes then that means your spark is probably fine. It is likely fuel delivery then. This could be an electrical failure at the fuel injectors, a fpr regulator failure or a fuel pump failure.

Put the wiring harness back in yesterday after inspecting for damage. Car started. So either there was a bad connection somewhere or it's done with it's episode and will die again in 2 weeks. Stay tuned
