You need to check the battery voltage as others have said. And then check the voltage to the yellow wire on the starter solenoid for good measure.

I developed excessive voltage drop in the circuit through either the bulkhead connector from the ignition switch or the 14 pin plug in the engine bay. Which I only found after replacing almost everything else, and when the fault stopped being intermittent...

Pretty sure an SC fuel pump shouldn't run when the key is on, also. You might want to look into that (probably just the connector not plugged into the air flow sensor).
