190 E starting problem

I have a 1992 190E 2.6L. I can pour fuel in the breather and it starts until the fuel runs out. I can hear the fuel pump buzzing when I turn on the ignition. I checked to see if fuel was getting to the fuel distributor and it is. It does not have high pressure though. I don't know how to check to see if the distributor is working or not. Or the electric module on it.
I then went out and switch the key on several times engaging the fuel pump (under the drivers side) and get the almost start sound. Help?

no love in the 190 arena. i guess we are the red headed step-child even diy benz owners would like to forget about. no offense...sp? I have no advice for you except to sell it and buy an e320 because that is where the support is. no one here cares about our compact mbz's. find a good indie or suck it up and move on. hope that helps...
