    Default 98 civic dx water pump

    Where is it? I am going to replace it and the thermostat. Car has 200k miles on it and I should go ahead and replace the 2.

    good rule of thumb, change timing belt and water pump every 100k miles.

    u have markings on your cam gear as well as your crank pulley u can line up for timing. You need to go grab a Haynes repair manual at Autozone, and start reading. It will asnwer most of your preventative maintance questions
