96 Honda civic EX?

Question

I had my 96 hondca civic ex for 4years and it was used when i bought..now it has 165000 mile already. i use it for delivery every day so how can i maintain my car in good condition?? or is it work to keep this car???

Answer 1

just keep it properly maintained you can get 300k easy

Answer 2

its certainly worth keeping it as the Civics can go 400,000 miles with no problem if they are properly maintained.

the first thing you should do is change the timing belt and the water pump. On that car it was to be done every 7 years or 90,000 miles. Based on your mileage you're due soon. Ignore the timing belt and at best you'll break down; at worst, you'll irreperatively damage the engine.

the regular valve adjustments on the car are the other critical element of maintenance. nothing affects the way the car runs, the fuel economy and the power than the valve adjustment. On your car that should be done every 30000 miles.

Every 30k you are also due for spark plugs, filters and the change of transmission fluid.

beyond that, just regular oil and filter changes every 3500-5000 miles will do you well for the rest of the life of the car.

hope that answers your question--just follow the care and feeding instructions and the car won't let you down.

A 1996 Honda Civic EX has a VTEC engine. Vtech is a cordless telephone it relatively is the main inexpensive so a methods. White smoke from the exhaust is water vapor once you started the automobile contained in the chilly morning. White smoke from the engine is the coolant leaking from the engine. loss of capability, sounds like, you have an extremely high priced engine fix. In my 1997 Honda Civic LX, I even have an identical difficulty (loss of capability), and that i failed the smog attempt, yet be able to repair it.
