TIA

easy telltale signs of damage to check are:
1. check the oil filler cap for milkshake like emulsion
2. check the oil dipstick for oil/antifreeze emulsion and for corrosion on the dipstick end
3. check the radiator cap, surge tank gasket and return hose for swelling of rubber components
4. check the tailpipe for steam when running engine. occasional steam upon start up is normal (droplets of water coming off the exhaust even with the engine warms up is a sign of trouble)
5. listen for engine rough idling or puffing at the exhaust tail pipe.
