E320 cranks over but won't start
I'm new to the forum, I have an E320 w210. The car cranks over but won't start.
I tried changing out the CPS and I have the same problem. I changed the fuel pump out about to years ago and I checked it and it sounds like it works.The car has no fault codes. Can some one tell me where to go from here? Thanks

Out Of Control!!
Regrettably to find the issue quickly takes some non DIY diagnostic equipment. In any event, sounds like you either are not making fuel rail pressure or you are not getting spark to the plugs. You can test the latter by removing the plug then have someone crank while you insulate yourself and ground the plug----do you get spark?
To check rail pressure you will need special tools----that's about it not being by the car!!

things with and without wheels
Are you absolutelly sure that you have fuel in tank?
try a little carb cleaner or ether into the intake if it starts then it's fuel related, if not, then its spark related.
