Default Need help getting Civic running

I'm having a couple problems with my 95 Civic Ex. The first just happened this morning going to work. When I left my house my car was stalling a little bit when I would give it gas, so when I went to make a sharp turn i downshifted to second and took off, once I started going, my car acted like I downshifted again and jumped forward. I checked to see if it was in gear and once I saw it was, it died. Now when I go to start it, it turns over but it won't get fire. About 2 weeks ago my check engine light would come on every now and then, but I was assuming it was my o2 sensor because of the poor gas mileage I was getting and how extremely rich it was running. I was thinking maybe the o2 sensor went bad and the car isn't getting enough fuel to start, but I don't want to buy the sensor if that is the problem. Any ideas?

Also, I replaced my clutch not too long ago, because it sounded like my throw-out bearing was going bad. I replaced the clutch and the car still makes the same noise. When I press in on the clutch it stops, but at an idle in neutral without the clutch pressed in, it makes a noise similar to a throw-out bearing going out. Once again, any ideas?

Thanks for your time and reading this, it's greatly appreciated!

-Jason

your clutch noise is probably your input shaft bearing. as for the no spark, it could be a dizzy, or a main relay.

It was my timing belt, thankfully no damage to the head. How hard would the input shaft bearing be to fix? How much would the labor be on fixing it if I took it somewhere? Also, could it possibly be the pilot bearing?
