Default EFI Relay

I've posted a problem with my '93 SC300 recently regarding my engine cutting out while cruising on the interstate. As I do more research, it appears that my EFI relay in the under hood fuse box may be the issue. The engine would start up again after about an hour so I'm thinking the relay resets after it cools down as others have pointed out. I'm still reluctant to drive any distance. Has anyone else experienced problems with this relay? My car has 140K Mi. and I just installed a new relay. The relay is available at many auto parts stores which makes me think it isn't uncommon to replace it.

I've had that problem. Car would not want to start again after being driven, then it would. The ac relay should be the same, next time it strands you try swapping them to see if it gets you back on the road
