Default Main relay can cause fuel pump issues?

hi guys, I install a new Walbro two months ago, this days I note that the pump it's whining different and the car feel slowly. I check the main relay fallow the FAQ instructions and it have some terminals with the amount of solder to little. This can cause the symptoms mentioned above?

thanks

A bad main relay can prevent the fuel pump from priming or running. It would not cause the fuel pump to whine or be more noisy.

if you have stock engine, then the stock Honda fuel pump is what you need.
