Well , you actually have a 350SL with d-jetronic. Have you checked spark? The transistorized ignition unit is known to fail on these cars. I believe it's way down on the passenger side front wing (on your car) close to the front. You can follow the green wire from the distributor to it. Also check the ballast resistors.

Hi thanks for reply yes I have spark when I spray easy start it will start and cut out so I think Sparkey is good on the car

Hi I have test Each injector with LED tester when I am cranking the engine the power was coming from ECU And it was blinking
 
If you have fuel to the rails and power to the injectors and you can hear them clicking (or not), then you're injectors are clogged.
 
Hi thanks I will check the injector can I clean them by myself?
 
It will be hard unless you have one of these

Ok yes it is complicated I have to send them away
 
Mr Injector will repair or replace and Bosch republished the D-jet manual. It was available through the classic store. The UK Mercedes-Benz Club has a good problem solving guide originally published by MB.

Hi marku do you have contact number for mr ingector ?
 

Interesting, the reason I bought that injector cleaner is because I needed to convert an XJ12C back to fuel injection as it was converted to propane. I had about 36 crappy injectors and needed to get 12 good ones. I believe that Lucas d-jet injectors fire by pulsing ground vs puling a live signal so it's slightly different.
 
No don't have a number for Mr Injector but is online. Got a repair kit for mine but does repair and supply refurbished but as you might have discovered they are not cheap particularly when needing 8.
