So, is the problem the clicking relay, or the car won't start and if you are asking if the clicking relay is related? If you think the problem has something to do with the fuel pump check the fuel pressure.

If you don't have a fuel gage, try spraying carb cleaner into the intake and see if it will start and run as long as you spray....

Also try disconnecting the MAF sensor, before starting....
