ive got a 91 accord about to tick over 200,000. i was wondering what i need to replace or at least check as preventitive maintance to ensure that i get another 50k. most of the engine is stock minus a intake and exaust. its a 4 cyl 2.2 automatic. Im also looking into replacing the front suspension but im kinda lost on what will make it handle best. any ideas?

 

i would just get the honda 105k tune up. As far as suspension, i would just get new shocks/springs. Eibach makes pretty good springs.

 

i believe the failing point on the 4th genas are around 275k. im at 217k and my engine is pretty strong and my manual tranny is pretty worn (i learned how to drive on it and i used to race it and shit)

keep changing oil at 3k and the usualy stuff. the auto tranny might not last as long as a stick just becuz the Honda autos suck.

as with suspension, H&R sports or the eibach are good springs. shcoks would be AGX's or Koni Yellows.

 

whats in the honda 105k tune up..?

 

id personally just replace everything, timing belts, pumps, plugs, filters and fluids...

 

Heres what I did when my 93accord ex hit 200K....

Timing belt, waterpump, cam and crank seals, drive belts all at 180K
Distributor began seeping oil from o-ring (repl oring, cap, rotor, plugs)
Clean and lube radio antenna mast
Removed main pgmFI relay and resoldered terminals
Valve cover gasket.
Axles rebooted at 225K (I kept mine, just cleaned/regreased)
EGR runners and throttle body cleaned
Fuel pressure and compression check (no trouble found)
Serviced transmission fluid
Checked all four wheels for "play", and inspected brakes.
I had a bad drivers window regulator (mainly from opening window every morning at security gate at work)
Readjusted front door window rubbers to stop the air noise.
