Hi first thing I would do is drain your fuel tank. E10 can be great fuel for later model vehicles designed to run on it, or even occasionally for those that are not. but it is a hard fuel to regulate as the mixture has to be very precise. after draining your fuel tank i would work backwards towards your motor, so this is the order that i would flush and do. -remove fuel pump and clean (checking for a filter in it) -remove fuel filter -flush fuel lines - remove injectors and have cleaned ( will also improve fuel economy and power) -refit injectors -fit NEW fuel filter reasemble.
once you have filled your fuel tank back up with clean fuel (best bet is to use a high octane Premium fuel) turn your ignition on, but do not start car. wait for the fuel pump to prime (as it should be loud as it will be empty), for a couple of minutes then start car. it may take a few attempts to start once cleaned as the fuel system will be completely dry, but dont let that scare you off.
i hope i have helped

Mercury Monterrey 2005 had torque converter replaced and cd player won't work is this a result of power being cut when redcall service done?

It is their fault

They don't care

They should do what is necessary to
have your CD Player work, after disconnecting
the battery, to do other work

Go there & stand the by the vehicle, while
they resolve the issue

The car was running fine one day then the next day it would not start. We tried jumping it thinking the battery might be dead and it still would niot start. The car has power until we take the jumper...

Sounds like you have a toasted battery or alternator. Have you performed a load test on the battery? Have you tried to charge the battery? First remove the battery and charge it externally from the vehicle. If the battery won't hold a charge, or won't hold a charge of 12 volts, replace it. Once you have the vehicle started, test the operation of the alternator. It should be putting out at least 13 volts back to the battery to keep it charged - if it is putting less than 13 volts or more than 16 volts, replace the alternator.

A/c WOULD NOT WORK. TOOK TO A GARAGE AND THEY TOLD ME RELAY WAS BAD AND CHANGED IT OUT. aFTER THEY SAID IT WAS "FIXED", drove away and noticed radio did not work at all, no time display or...

Sounds like a case of selling a car, when the problems
become too stressfull & you bought it

Your shop tried but may not have been
in the upper 10% skill wise

Need the best place around & a
fresh start.

I think they had the battery disconnected
& ran out of knowledge when it can time to
give you the car back.

I won't even guess without the car to test

Lancer not getting enough fuel and cutting out

It might be the fuel filter needs to be changed and it's cutting off flow. Other wise you'll have to look at the pump or injectors.
