E420 lacking power sounds funny and idles rough

Hello everyone,
I have a 94 E420 that I bought not to long ago. I was driving home one day and when I all the sudden I when i went to give the car gas coming off the high way i noticed it had no power and it was sounded like it had a large exhaust leak. Before I used to hear a loud whining noise from what i suppose was one of the fuel pumps before this happen when getting on it you could feel a slight loss in power or not a smooth acceleration as you would expect. So im not sure if maybe the pumps are bad or it could be a relay maybe a fuse ?? if it would help I can record a video and post the car running and driving right up the street. I know my wiring harness has already been replaced not to long ago so im pretty confident thats not the problem. Also if it means anything the car is cat-less. Help on the topic would be greatly appreciated. ive been dying to get my babyback on the road.
