I wouldn't run the fans off the coil as the power for it comes through the ignition switch. I assume you are doing it to have the fans powered only
when the ignition is on. In that case, run a relay off the coil to switch power from the battery to the fans.
I doubt that is the cause of the engine dying under load, but it is a fix you should make anyway.
