94 Camry finally dies (short term I hope)

So the problem is fixed but more expensive than I had hoped, partly because its 2 hours labor to pull dist. and replace the coil and partly because of a tow.

Aside from the timing belt, what other items might go and leave me stranded that are worth replacing ahead of time?

Water pump; timing belt tensioner pulley and spring. Perhaps upper rad hose if it's soft, but the original on my 94 Corolla is still in perfect shape. Older Toyotas have indestructible hoses - I love it!

I did the timing belt and water pump at 125K and will do it again maybe at 205K (so 80K on current belt) and will then do tensioners, etc. Currently 182K.

Glad that it's fixed.
