2000 corolla problem

well yesterday i hit a pothole and parted car at coffee shop and tool a break and when i came out the car would not start so i waited and tryed a few times and took off so i went to gas station and toped up gas that was at 1/2 full and checked oil and every thing seamed all right till i got up the street and it died on me when i slowed down and started right away and car worked good till that night when i got home and went to get some gas line antifreeze and injector cleaner and it acted up again. this morning car worked good and started ok till this after noon it world not stat and whats going on is when i turn the car on there no check engine light on so i know it won't start so i take the key out and waite and fiddle back and forth with key and the light is back on so i know the car will start and it does. this had happen twice to day and one took about 6 min in parking lot to it took off. i have changed one of the small relays under the hood thats a small gray one that has (INJ) on it and hope that this may solve the problem. all wires under dash are dry and in good shape. i'm going to try this and see how this work out and will keep posted and any one have any advice if don't work the car has 237000km on it

didn't hit that hard as car didn't get out of line or any damage done. Car is now headed to the garage and i hope it can be fixed without breaking the bank. will update when things get fixed and i have a feeling it may be the ECU
