Hi wow a lot of parts have been changed. This will probably be a wireing connector problem. The connector at the fuel pump could be corroded or wire freyed or pins not makeing good connection.

Plugs at the power control module freyed pins not makeing good connection coil ekec wires not makeing good connections.

Try and wiggle these connectors why car is running see if you can make it missfire or stall. Hope this helps please feel free to ask all the questions you want. Thanks Billymac

Hi yes this could be the asd relay. The problem some of this model car had the asd intagrated into the pcm which is located inside the fender driver side. If you have no relay for asd in your relay center then you have to find a new or used pcm.
