Timing Belt!

**xedent** · 10-07-2012 04:33 PM

Hello guys, i just bout a 1990 ED civic that has a low 60k klms on it. Bought by an old lady new and serviced every interval (6 months) by honda.
She traded it back to Honda where she bought it, now I'm just wondering because i asked them if the timing belt was replaced and they say that it says on there system that they don't think it was ever changed.

Now my question is should i get it changed? its only at 60k klms or wait till 100k ?

Thanks

Well it's 22 years old.
I'd be changing plenty of parts just to be safe.

Sometimes low-use and age is more detrimental to a cars health than high k's.

definitely change it!

should be changed every 100k or 5 years
