Cooling Fan Help!

Well,I fixed the ac compressor today the darn hot wire was disconnected,I reconnected it and voila ac compressor turned on but did not throw any cold air out so I took out the remaining freon in the system and went and bought a stop/leak for r12 from autozone put it in and then put 2 cans of r12 freon and the ac worked but 20 minutes later the car heated up did the ac compressor cause my car to heat up?and noticed that it did not have any antifreeze in the radiator so I put some in it but also noticed that the condenser fan worked but my cooling fan did not. I tried connecting it directly to the battery but it did not work,I dont know where the cooling fan relay is at or if its the fan motor itself,(leaning towards the fan motor since I connected it directly and it did not work)Heres another question,will my ac work better with the cooling fan working and will stop the car from heating up. what are the main purposes of a condenser fan and cooling fan, without legend for at least 2 days till I get a new cooling fan motor any suggestions where I can get a cheap one. it was 98 degrees in corpus today.... AC WORKSSS.....

How did you manage to get R-12?

And why get rid of the R-12 in the system already? If you don't have a vacuum pump you won't get it all out anyway.

I see the hole in the ozone getting bigger...

My A/C always worked better on the highway than around town - probably a combination of lower engine speeds and less airflow through the coils, even with the fans on.

I got it from JOHN DEERE the lawnmower place they sell it there without a liscense.This is going to get weird I had converted it to 134a and the compressor was not working anyway so I just let it out I think if I put a little r12 oil it will work better on the street as well it gets hella cold on the highway,I am sorry about the ozone but it is freaking hot in south texas so it will make me do crazy things.
