I would look at the fuel accumulator. It helps to hold fuel pressure and aids the engine when starting warm. A quick search on the forums should bring up where to find it, but I would guess that it is underneath the car near the fuel tank.

I just had that problem on my '92 300CE. After replacing the crankshaft sensor it turned out to be my EZL, which I replaced. No problems since then but I don't know if you have one on that model year.
