Car sometimes dies, won't start, click click click from relays

Hello all,
Working on my car this past month has been fun but now I'm starting 
to have an itch to get this thing on the road. It seems to decide 
whether it wants to run one day and sleep the next. On some occasions 
including today it starts fine, runs for a minute then dies. Getting 
it started after that is about impossible. I already have a fuel 
filter and accumulator to change this weekend. My concern is a click 
click click (about a second apart) from the relay compartment when it 
does not start. On first crank I can also hear the fuel pump run, but 
after that I don't hear it again. I'm sure my accumulator is going 
out, but is the relay clicking normal? Could one of them be shutting 
off my fuel pump as well???
Also up there with stupid things to do... I was replacing my 
passenger door window motor last night. Got it out ok but the window 
was pulled from the tracks and now sits in the bottom of the door. 
Any procedure to start it back up from the bottom?
Safe travel to all for the Memphis show! Wish I could come along but 
have to work.
