Aqilea........check the OVPR fuse. Behind the battery is a plastic cover, you will find the fuel pump relay as well as other electronics. The OVPR has a clear, hinged cover with a 10 amp flat (spade) fuse under it. Blown? Probably....Been there done that.

I have a 1990 300E and there is ONE fuse on the OVPR. The cover is a plastic piece that is behind the battery and the relay has a clear cover with one spade type fuse.
The needle on the economy gauge will be shakey if the idle is rough as it runs on vacuum.
The reason I suspected the OVPR fuse is due to your having battery troubles.....I had the same problem.
