Wow, that's difficult to read.

I would suggest you carefully go over the connectors and wires you unplugged or disturbed. That's probably where your starter and fan problems are.

I think you mean idle when you say ideal? You probably have the throttle cable mucked up too, and it's sticking in wide open throttle.

Go over everything, take your time, and do it right.

Might want to let others know what the PROBLEM was so that future searches yield a solution for others.

not sure, autozone said the starter was good, they gave me another on anyways, i went and put it in the parking lot lol, i put the trans ground back to the original ground spot, the car wouldnt start so did roll start got home about 10 min later and turned car off and now it starts, but its a wierd noise now like when the cars starting but the noise is faster when turning then once its started its fine no noises

Have someone get under the hood and figure out where the noise is coming from when you're giving it ignition.

The problem still isn't fixed and if you don't fix it now - you'll be left stranded somewhere.

Verified that the starter pinion does not have issues contacting the flywheel and the solenoid doesn't have any issues extending the pinion completely?
