Quick question: I know what the "Circuit Open Relay" is, but I've also heard mention of a "Fuel Pump Relay". Are they one and the same? Troubleshooting warm-start issues, as you can imagine.
 
Maybe this will help,

I had warm start issues at one point and it turned out to be bad connection from battery which didn't give the starter enough voltage to turn. It would just click.

If your starter is clicking when you try and turn her over then it's too much resistance with the heat after a long drive. So check wiring.

If it's turning over fine disregard this post.
 
Thanks guys. @Jerry D. , I'd seen that in my FSM and definitely don't see a "Fuel Pump Relay" mentioned. Perhaps some folks are calling the Air Flow Meter a relay, or my better guess is that they mistake it with the Circuit Open Relay.

Also, starter seems to be working fine. No fuel - I think I have it narrowed down to a bad fuel pump.

Just making sure I've got all my troubleshooting ducks in a row. Again thanks for the help.
