Timing belts

Hi,
i was wondering if the '94 Honda Civic DX has a timing belt. If it does, where is it located, and how do I know it is time to replace it?

iT depends on the emission specs for your car but at 60K or 90K but no later as it is an inereference engine and you can wipe out the valves and cylinder head.

If you don't know where the timimg belt is located DON'T even think about changing it. Specail tools and special knowledge apply. Let a pro do it. good luck

Thanks. Recently I had a major tune up done for the car but I wasn't sure if checking the timing belt was part of the check up too. Is it normal to pay up to $500 in maintenance fees?

Depends on what mileage check they performed.
