Sounds like you're drawing too much current for the relay. Check for short circuits

ok the ignition switch is good, but the main relay still takes a few minutes to kick on and let me start the car.... n e ideas? where does the main relay connect to the ecu? cause if so, i think there may be a short in the obd1 to obd2 jumper harness....
