JUST BOUGHT 95 CIVIC DX--WHAT SHOULD I CHECK FOR WITH MAINTENANCE?
engine and manual trans seem to run perfect. Is there anything I
should particularly inspect that is known to need replacement over time/miles as I want to preserve the car and keep it running for the next several years. Thanks again. |

The only sign you will have that you need a new belt is that the old one is broken and your engine is not running. Jeff |

Change the oil. Bleed the brake fluid and the clutch hydraulic fluid. Do the footwork to prove whether the TB has been changed. If not, get it changed. Wax the car by hand. Seller should have provided the proof. 'Curly' |
