Anyone know when Honda changes the timing belt?
I bought my 96 accord from my sister with about 140K (155K now) and when she bought it, it was @ 80K. She's not much on maintenance, but the original owner had the car serviced on time all the time @ the dealership. Anyone think the timing belt may have been caught before 80K (i know it's recommended @ 90K or so) and also what's the highest mileage you guys have seen from the original timing belt?

I think a Safe bet would be to say on most honda's it's around 100k. I've had honda's that were well past 150k and still had the original belt on, but if it's not a beater I wouldn't push my luck if I were you. I'd replace it and don't forget to do the waterpump and seals as well.
