It's time to start planning for the timing belt change. What else should I plan to change while I'm at it?

I figure motor mounts, water pump ($25 at NAPA?).

Any suggestions welcome.

Cheers,

Roland

Don't use an aftermarket water pump. I learned my lesson with a brand new (not rebuilt) water pump that had a bad bearing after only 18 months. I bought the pump at NAPA. You can get one for the same price from hondaautomotiveparts.com.

I change the thermostat while I'm at it because you have the cooling system drained.
