Answer
Jeremy,

You should have the temperature sensor checked (this is what turns on your fans when it gets to a certain temperature). Also check the radiator hoses, especially when hot, the hoses could be collapsing from age. The only other thing could be that the cap on your radiator may not be maintaining proper pressure and needs to be replaced. Hope that this helps and good luck. If you need further assistance, please do not hesitate to contact me.
