Help! Car starts then dies- 1996 E320

[Falsapartenza85]

Hello Everyone,

I have been searching through endless posts to find a resolution. I have a 1996 E320 with the M104 engine. I am havine an intermittent problem where the car starts, then dies- it will do this repeatedly for 5-10 minutes then start. Temperature doesnt seem to affect it. I have had the battery replaced, still does it- This is not every day. I had luck the past 2 days, and then all of a sudden, this morning it acted up. Called AAA, then all of a sudden, she started fine and drove well. I checked the Mass Air Meter, and not sure if thats the culprit. No check engine lights on at all-

I am thinking-
1.) Mass Air Flow Meter
2.) Crank Position Sensor

Any other ideas? I'm stumpped!
