190e died on freeway

My 1991 190e was running great, then suddenly died at 55 mph. Its home now but won't start. It has fuel. I can hear the fuel pump run for a few seconds when the key is turned on. I cracked the fuel line at the fuel distributor, and fuel squirts out under pressure so that seems OK. I cracked a line at an injector and while turning over the engine no fuel comes out there. I've pulled the spark plugs, they're fine. I am getting spark to the plugs. Any ideas?

Exclamation

That engine requires at least 80psi of fuel pressure to run. YOU need to see if you have at least that much fuel pressure with a gauge.
