89 300SE starting issues

I have 1989 300se that was running quite fine until recently. I had just gotten off the freeway and came to a stoplight. when I turned the corner and accelerated the car suddenly ceased to speed up and sputtered like it was runnin out of gas. Well with over half a tank of gas I knew it was not the problem. The car died at the next lite and would not restart. Tow truck driver suggested fuel pump. Well I replaced pump, filter , and the thign next to that(accumulator?) Now, car cranks but it seems like I am not getting spark at the plug nor fuel at the injector .

Boom, Coolant vapor all over inside the cockpit

I recently got an 85 300sd with an engine that only has 92000 on it. The car drove great till I heated it up on a 30 min trip home from work during the hot part of day. I was just about home when I turned on the A/C, ahh it was nice and cold, but at a stop light the engine started to make some strange vibration and a few minutes later coolant vapor burst into the cockpit (not very nice while you are driving). I got the windows down and pulled over and the vapor slowed down, but the engine temp started to get hot.
