Hmm...  bare with me a second I'm having trouble reading your post...

Your car is overheating rapidly? You already checked/replaced thermostat.
It knocks when you start it?
It has stalled while running before?
Dealer thinks it's the fuel pump?

Is that right?
---------------------------------------------------------
Okay I have some questions then...

Is there any smoke coming out of the exhaust?  White or grayish-blue?

---------------------------------------------
Then....

Have a compression test run (Not by the dealer if you have a choice)
Have fuel pressure at the rail tested (To eliminate the dealers thought of the fuel pump being bad)
----------------------------------------------------------
