What kinda of preventative maitenance should I be doing? 160K miles
I've got a 93 accord and i'm approching 160k.
I just recently had a distributor problem, I'm getting that replaced.
I changed my cam and crank shaft seals back at 90k along with the water pump and timing belt.
I'm guessing i'm getting close to replacing those again.
So what else should I watch our for.
I don't wanna have my car die wile driving again.(distributor problem)

If you still have your manual you can easily figure out what needs to be done based upon the main schedule in there.

In a Junkyard near you.
You need to flush out your brake fluid (Honda reccomends that every 2 years regardless of mileage)
Also you need to completely change the Transmission fluid too (using a flush machine WITH NO ADDITIVES!!!). But in another 20k miles you should change the timing belt and water pump again.
And just check your air filter, look for oil leaks, all that good stuff.
