I have an H23a swap with an F22 5spd, car was running well until the water pump went. So I got a new water pump and tune up (belts and other things I needed to replace). Now the fans aren't working. If I don't have the AC on they dont go on at all and when the AC is on they go on and shut off constantly, on off, on off, on off. Also, when I start the car instead of the RPMs going straight to 1200 they go real low, like almost stall low and gradually climb to 1200. My temp gauge isnt hooked up cause it wont work with this engine, but I know she's running hot cause the antifreeze reservoir levels have been moving. I was thinking maybe a bad thermostat, otherwise its probably my computer?? Any ideas?

When engine is up to normal running temp, check the lower radiator hose is hot to see if the thermostat opens up. If it does open up then it's not the stat then you might want to check the fan switch. Also make sure you didn't unplug anything accidentally.
