radiator questions

Hi all. My 1970 250 keeps threatening to overheat. The radiator fan on my 1970 250 is not kicking on. Is there a minimum temperature for it to start? If so, do I need to look at the thermostat? Anyone have any troubleshooting tips for either the fan or the thermostat? Thanks!

RE: radiator questions

Check the relay that controls the aux fan. I would also check the sensor that controls it. Mine (on a 280SE) were both shot.
