Default Need Help...

I bought a 1988 mustang 5.0 atwo weeksago and all it needed wastochange theheads, i changed them and took the car out for a spin....it worked out real good , then i noticed that the hood started to smoke after some time driving, so i stopped and one of the hoses from water was squirting water bc it wasnt tight enough... so, i turned off the car, waited for it to cool down , and then filled it up with water all over again....oh, i also think that i ran out of gas bc the car kinda boggled down....after i tried to turn it back on and the car wouldnt start, battery works and engine turns....anyone know what could be wrong????
