Re: OxygenSensor.net
 
I see the NTK oxygen sensor for a 94 Civic VX for $80 at
this site. But I don't think that's a genuine Honda sensor,
and so it's a real roll of the dice.

Try https://www.automedicsupply.com for OEM sensors at good
prices. I have used it for an OEM O2 sensor for my 91 Civic
a couple of years ago. Good service. No problems with the
sensor.

That VX a California compliant one?

No, a Kalifornistan sensor is much cheaper!! My red jewel is a
Canadian built 48 stater.

This is the one I'm looking at. It has the correct Honda part number.
Most sites want $300 + for it.

Re: 95 Civic LX Intake Air Temperature Sensor
 
I can't check the ignition timing, since the engine doesn't run. Is
there a way to check ignition timing without the engine running?
Thanks.

Yeah, have someone crank while you test. Same as if it was running, but
cranking instead. Timing ought to be close to the specified 16deg BTDC.

Another method: Turn engine by hand to TDC compression (#1 valves closed),
then remove distributor cap and see if rotor arm is pointing at the #1
terminal on the cap. That will give you an idea whether the timing's
horribly off or not.

Are you sure your timing belt hasn't slipped?
