What needs to be renewed?

My 96 Accord is all stock and I dont think anything got renewed, probably fixed up but just small things. I heard I might need new spark plugs and thats as far as I know. It has about 180k mileage on it so far.

If that belt snaps you will need to get the head rebuilt.

PCV valve, air filter, fuel filter, and maybe oxygen sensor(s).

Plug wires as well. If it's an automatic then I would go ahead and change the ATF but I would only use Honda ATF. Of course an oil change but you knew that already.

You can ONLY use Honda ATF. Or you may as well throw water in the dang thing.
