When I bought the car there was a used fuel pump in the back, so I assume it was changed. From the first EDC fault code I kind of concluded that the someone who swapped the FIP didn't put it back properly as it being a bit loose could be causing the "injector timing value out of range" fault at startup rpms.It sounds like a jumped chain or the fuel pump has been advanced too much. Has anyone adjusted the fuel pump body at any point?

If the pump timing is way out or the chain has jumped a cog it can cause damage. Pistons hit the valves, pump backlash etc. typically it sounds like a bag of nails and jumps around a bit.
Even when they do jump a cog and it goes terribly wrong some of them survive it.
If the others have never seen 4% either I’m inclined to think it is a false reading. Get the belt sorted first see how it goes. No diagnostic can be trusted with low volts.
If it still runs rough afterwards we will help you work through the static

the temperature sensor under the manifold between 4 and 5 clinder can give wierd gearbox faults more in the high change range dont know if affects the engine running and also the timing is affected by the pressure reglated timing piston at the bottom of the pump which could be sticking. also the static timing method that datatech. has works
