Dont forget coolant... always overlooked..
Check your coolant (ie if its toyota it better be RED)..
you can get testers that test the strength, usually you want from 50/50 to 60/40 is the standard ranges in most cars. Make sure the overflow bottle is at its (MAX) mark and the water in the radiator appears clean.
Check radiator cap to make sure seal is still good.. have a close look at the top tank (most toyotas are plasic from the late 80's onwards) for signs of stress/cracks/seeping.
Also check thermostat housing and heater hosing.
