Before departing, what should you check regarding the engine compartment?

  1. If it’s clean

  2. If water and oil leaks are present

  3. If it is spacious enough

  4. If it can be used for storage

The correct answer is: If water and oil leaks are present

When preparing for a trip, it is important to check the engine compartment to ensure that there are no leaks present. This is important because leaks can indicate potential mechanical issues and can lead to breakdowns on the road. Options A, C, and D are incorrect because they do not directly pertain to the safety and functionality of the engine compartment. The cleanliness, spaciousness, and potential use for storage are not as critical as checking for leaks. It is important to prioritize safety and maintenance when preparing for a trip.
