MAINTANENCE
One of the things people need to do is change their timing belt. Many manufacturers recommend this service at around 100K miles. Some are sooner, some later. It's very important for alot of engines that may self destruct if the service is not done. If your concerned about the mileage look it up under the technicals informationan about your particular engine. Many times the timing belt will drive the water pump also so it's a good time to change that and your anti freeze. This particular engine is a 92 Honda Civic 1.5 16 valve engine. It is what called an interference engine which meeans if the belt is not changed the engine will self destruct if it's not changed in time. Many times it is a good point at which to combine services and save a few bucks by doing them now, like I did a valve adjustment and tune on this engine.
