I am having problems starting my 190E MB. Sometimes while trying to crank the car the engine will not start until the gas pedal is pressed down. Also on other ocasions it will start up and then cut back off. Any ideas on what this maybe?

Two things to check. Overvoltage relay and the fuel pump relay

We carry the service Cd for this. IT is the 201 chasis.

I checked both. I even went ahead and replaced the fuse in the top of the overvoltage relay. I am still having the problem. Could there be something wrong witht the fuel pump. Or the Coil?
