Well it seems that the starting issue is solved, at least it appears that it is.

It turns out that the problem was the Camshaft Hall-effect sensor which is supplied with voltage from the relay module. The signal of the Camshaft sensor is used by the engine control module for recognition of cylinder #1, thereby providing synchronization of the injection sequence, anti-knock control, and fuel shut-off at ignition failures as well as ignition when starting. So I ended up replacing both the CPS and Camshaft Sensors.

I was able to find the problem due to an extremely great article (attached) The "Hall Effect Crankshaft Sensor"by Tech Tip, which explains in detail both sensors, to include what happens if you have a bad Camshaft sensor or CPS. Great Article. Everyone that is experiencing "Engine Turns, but it won't start" after replacing the CPS should defenetly make sure that the Camshaft sensor is working.

Thanks for your replies.
