I have a 93 accord and I had changed my radiator, and ever since then my cars been acting up! My battery always dies. If I jump it it's all good but once I take off it starts to bog out and shuts off,so I changed my alternator. And I have a brand new distributor.(with the coil inside) but still doesn't hold the charge! Oh and when my fan goes on it makes a really weird loud noise.would you happen to know what's going on?

    With out being there in person to see what the real problem is, it is really tough to diagnose this kind of a problem 'on line' so to speak. It sounds like you did not properly align your fan on the new radiator, so it is rubbing on something. As for the charging system, dead battery problem, start with the basics and fully charge your battery and then disconnect it as it sits over night. Reconnect if it and if still won't start your car in the morning, then you have a defective battery. If the car starts, then you have a drain. Best of luck and let me know if I can assist you further.
