I just disconnected the orange wire coming off the battery for 5 seconds to clear my code 45 and after reconnecting the car won't run for long. It starts and runs for 5 seconds then dies. Everytime I start it after that it runs for less and less time till all the car does is crank. I try to get the car to continue to run longer by playing with the throttle, but all it does is pop a few times and dies. I can tell the car gets fuel b/c I can smell raw fuel at the pipes. The car ran 30 minutes prior with no problems. I also disconnected the MAF and tried to start it with the same issue. I can hear the full pump run, saw no vacuum leaks and have good (40 psi) fuel pressure. Any ideas? I have a DirectScan file that I ran 30 minutes before if that helps.
I did find something interesting with the two relays near the blower motor on the passenger fender (near where the orange wire goes, the reason I found it). Check it out

Sorry for the blurry pics
What do these relays do? Anything else I can check?
Thanks guys,
