Maybe its the fuel pump relay sticking?

And in the time your spending removing the injectors the relay is cooling down enough to work again, if you know what i mean.

When it wont start after running, let it stand for a while without touching anything, then see if it starts after 20 minutes or so.

I cant remember if they have an internal wiring diagram on them showing the contacts?

When the car wont start, you could remove the relay and check that the contacts are open/closed as per the diagram with a continuity meter...

Or just replace it, thats the easiest way!
