Angry Hard start issue on 97' e320

Ok, First I'd like to say hi everyone and thanks for a great forum.
Second I need help!!! I seem to have a problem that even my local dealership can't figure out. My E320 has a random problem of not wanting to start. It will continualy crank over but not fire??
I have replaced, the fuel pump, pressure regulator, crank sensor, ignition sensor, key, battery, and full tune up. Still with no luck.

Any help would be appericiated.Thanks

Wow, thats a tough one. Everything I was about to suggest, you've already had replaced. How about the fuel pump relay? When the car doesn't start, is it getting fuel pressure at least? Can you hear the pump run when you turn the ignition on?
