Car cuts out sometimes when you are driving. Car sometimes struggles to start. It does start eventually and can drive perfect for a few days, then it suddenly cuts out when you are driving and it appears to be when I am slowing down for traffic lights etc. If I wait a few minutes, the car starts and I can continue driving and ir may drive fine for a few more days. On the other hand it can cut out twice in a day.

I had that problem. I unscrewed the idle control valve (near the air intake), applied contact cleaner spray and all dirt came out. After it was dry, I put it back on its place. No problem ever since.

C220 excessive revving at start up and neutral?

Certainly check for a sticking throttle and idle air valve if fitted.

If nothing is found it could need the engine management defaults restoring. Sometimes disconnecting the battery for a few hours or overnight will reset things and sometimes diagnostic equipment with the right software is needed.

WILL START DRIVE A FEW BLOCKS , THEN SIT 5 MIN GO TO START AND WILL ONLY CRANK CHECK FUEL FUSE SOMETIMES BLOWN OTHER TIMES NOT HIT TANK THEN MAY START , MIGHT TURN OFF AND THEN MAY BLOW FUSE, REPLACE FUSE...

for 1 fuse blown evry so often then you must have a short somewhere, the fact that it will crank and not start is most likely ur fuel pump , had the same issue with getting fuel to start or keep car running, possible that short could be by the fuel pump, the fuel pump is located under the rear seat and if im not mistaken it is on the drivers side rear

It sounds like the plugs are bad or not heating correctly. Running it out of petrol can mess them up like that sometimes.
