These Civics are ULTRA reliable with basic maintenance.
Our old 1998 Civic is approaching 250K miles (nephew now drives it) and the only problem the car ever had was a cracked exhaust mainfold ($85) at 160K miles and I installed a new Denso O2 sensor due to the mileage. Other than that, everything is still original on the car except maintenance items and the TBelt & WP.
BTW, if your car stalls (which out Civic did) and you scan the OBD for codes, it will not show any if your IAC is clogged.
