What motor does it have in it?  Could be any number of things on a carb, I'd do the fuel filter first, then check the warm air feed on the air box.

If the fan kicks in at about 3/4 thats fine, as long as the light isn't flashing you should be OK.  If you're worried replace the temp sender in the radiator.
