1991 Mercedes 300D Turbo Diesel - HELP!

Please help me. I have a 1991 MB 300D 2.5L Turbo Diesel. When I attempt to start the car, it has trouble staying in idle. I have to pump the gas pedal 4-5 times in oder to get the engine to run and have the gas pedal down at least half way to keep the engine running. As the engine runs, there is a cloud of white smoke coming from the exhaust. There is no blow-by, however when I uncap the radiator cap, a froth of bubbles rise after 5 minutes or so of running.

A/c and Heater '83 300SD

I've seen this question on here before. But I never saw the fix. I turn on my AC or heater on low fan speed it works just fine. But if your hot or cold and turn the fan to high speed it runs fine for abuot three mins.Then it's off for about 1 min. on for 5 secs. off for 5 secs. it dose this for about 5 mins. then it will run for about 1 1/2 mins. and starts this all over again. It also dose a screeching sound under the dash on and off too with the no and off. Is there a hight limit on the fan or somthing? Thank for any help the weather is starting to heat up
