My 1997 E300D stalls while driving. Sometimes it starts right up and sometimes it starts up in the limp home mode. I had this checked a couple of times but they can not find anything. Some where it is loosing power but is not regisstering any hard codes. Any ideas?

The most likely causes, are

a) Plugged Fuel Filters.
b) Air in the fuel system, Possibly caused by a fuel leak.
c) Bad load of fuel.
d) Vacuum in the fuel tank. Loosen fuel cap, retighten and try again.
