    Hi,

    My sister has a nice Honda Accord 1995 (bought in 1995 by another
    sister and given to this sister 1 year ago). It is in good shape but
    it is time for timing belt change.
    She lives in Sacramento 95833 zip code. I would like to direct her
    to a nic eplace where she could get that done; the place she used to
    go for different things got closed. last jaunray.
    Also, how much shoukd ti cost around here to put a new timing belt in
    this Honda?

    Yow! I hope you've replaced it since '95 (regardless of mileage) .. I
    think the time limit on the belt is somewhere around 6 years.. I had mine
    ('96 Civic, 15k miles when i got it this July) replaced.. It wasn't worn
    to the point of almost breaking, but it was rather dry and cracked.

    You can try http://cartalk.cars.com/About/Garage/mechan-x/find.htmlt's .
    It's a search engine at Car Talk's site, where people write in what
    mechanics in their area they've had luck with. You go in with your zip code
    and how many miles max. the shop can be from this zip code, and it lists
    shops.
