relaxamigo is an unknown quantity at this point
Your fuel should look more like ginger tea....

x2 on flushing the tank. If it starts with starting fluid (and sounds healthy) it's not getting the appropriate amounts of fuel.

Your pump can still feed fuel to the injectors, and you'll visibly see them firing like you said, but the amount of fuel coming out can be weak. If your green tea flush is inconclusive, it may be helpful to check fuel pressure to rule out the pump.

Perhaps you should also pull the fuel pump cover in your trunk and verify that there isn't anything funny brewing in there... Gunk in your tank will not make the KA happy.
