Angry Need Help Engine Running like sh*t

Ok my car is an 87 N/a 13. It just started to rough idle out of no were. Sounds like a Harley. And when u rev it u can hear it spitting air back through the air-filter. One of my radiator's hose broke on me a while back and it over heated just a little bit. And would not start I think its flooding out because when I unplug the fuel pump relay it starts then plug it back it to let it run. Any help is appreciated.

Check the compression, it sounds like you lost the motor.
