Were there other incidents that made your car to make you stranded? As I said previously, I only became stranded twice in 16 years of ownership. First time was due to a broken distributor cap that made me stranded in the freeway. That time, the engine gradually lost power and I was able to slowly decelerate to the shoulder.
What more problems can I expect to see (197K miles 1991 300E) that will make our cars stall, so that I could take some preventive measures and have parts replaced?

I would get a couple of cans of bg44k. I use it once a year. at mid year interval i use a bottle of techron.
i would carry a spare fuel pump relay. As a preventative measure you might consider changing the fuel filter. That said, I have one on the shelf and I haven't changed any of mine.
I am sort of lucky. when one of my cars has an issue, i can pick and pull from another and trouble shoot that way..
