Ok so I tried soldering and fixing my main relay and that didn't seem to work so I decided I'd jsut spend the $50 and buy a new one. Now my start up problem has been fixed for the most part but there seems to be a different problem. Before the new relay my car would die on me when I'm braking. It wasn't just while braking it was when I would just about stop and hit the idle stage and my car would just start sputtering and hit 0 on RPMs, sometimes it dies and sometimes it'll struggle itself back to life. After the new relay installed it'll do the same thing only it seems to be keeping itself running more often. I took it for a drive after the install and it still died on me twice while coming to a stop.
Is this still a relay problem or a different problem entirely?

It's a 92 S. I replaced the fuel injection (main) relay. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

I would check out your ignition next, make sure that your spark plugs/wires/dizzy cap+rotor are all in good shape. However it could be many different things. Here is some reading for you:

Thanks a lot. I read through that and it helped with a few questions. I think I'll just take it into a shop and have it checked out and see what's happening still. to PO for answering sooner than PZ.

Turned my idle up and fixed the problem

^That is a temporary quick fix. You should try to find why your idle was low in the first place and fix it.
