I had the same problem with my 94 E320 just shutting off without warning, turned out to be the OVP. Just yesterday though after changing the spark plugs I seemed to upset the original wiring harness and now it misses like mad. I cut open the covering around the wires that go to the coils and discovered I had the dreaded disentigrating wiring harness, which I am sure I was causing the misfire because when I fiddled with the wires the car would run great for a sec and then back to running like a sick cow. Made me sick to have to pay over $800 for a wiring harness but I had no choice. To make a long story short (is that possible now?) there is no loss in putting in the new harness because sooner or later you will need a new one for sure, but if your problem persists make sure to check out the OVP.

Pete: I have a 1993 400E with 229,000 miles on it. During the recent process of replacing the water pump and power steering pump, I think I may have disturbed the wiring harness, because it's got a miss now. I ordered the harness from MercedesShop today and hopefully it will arrive by 2nd day air by the long holiday weekend. Any tips on where to start with the harness replacement? Thanks.
Skybound: What is an OVP? It's probably something simple, but it's not coming to me (too many acronyms in my head already).

Take the air cleaner assembly off and everything will be abundantly clear. All you will need in the way of tools is an allen wrench and a phillips screwdriver.
