Runs poorly and needs power steering pump

I started using 50% regular + E85 ethanol mix for 2 months and now have problems. Car dies at stops and doesnt run smoothly. Should I have the injectors cleaned and fuel filter?

Secondly, my power steering pump needs to be replaced. Where can I buy a repair manual.

I have a Mits Endeavor 2004.

Thanks!!

Well you can buy the repair manual at any auto parts store usually. Autozone usually has a pretty decent selection.

The problem is the E85, you have probably done some serious damage to your fuel system. No Mitsubishi is rated for E85. Ethanol is VERY corrosive to aluminum and rubber parts in your fuel system.
