I would check ecu temp sensor & connector/wiring harness as I seen them bad causing serious over-fueling on hot start & also can keep fans running like other fault you reported .

Did you change/ modify anything on the harness while it was out? Just making sure, so we know that it was untouched.

^ you changed the sensor for the dash temp guage.
the ecu temp sensor has a 2pin plug .

The red connector is the Ecu temp sensor, a bit of a fiddly job to change in situ but can be done.

If you unplug temp sensor it runs in fault mode.
You best first off doing a fault code check just to see if throws up something useful.
You then could remove temp sensor & test it in some hot water with a thermometer & multimeter, want check harness/connector feed voltage contact condition etc. You could bridge the terminals on harness with 2000ohm resistor which would give ecu value of below 20degC so fans should be off & should start ok in sensible ambient climate. New sensor not expensive & can be had from £6 to £12 or grab some from junk yard as they used in loads of nissans.
