Do you hear the hum of the fuel pump when
you first turn on the key?

Scooterman

yea i do... like heres my situation just hear me out, last night i put in an electric fan, and i got it workin, then the next morning i went to start the car, and it just cranks, but wont fully start up.. i dont wanna say its the battery, altho i probably drained some of it just by numerously cranking away.. im not sure what the problem could be, spark?

TFI module on the distributor is most likely the culprit, followed by a bad coil or stator inside the dizzy.

Scooterman

should i just get a new distributor perhaps? i mean i just dont understand how a car wont start after installing an electric fan, it doesnt make any sense to me at all

Where did you connect the fan electrically?
I assume you are talking about a radiator fan?
You may have drained down the battery so it
is cranking slowly. I would first get a 12 volt
charger and get the battery up to full charge.
Then try again.
Next I would pull a spark plug wire and attach an old
spark plug making sure the metal end is touching ground.
Have some one crank the car in the shade and look to
see that there is a brite flash between the tip end of
the spark plug.
