Timing marks

I bought this car last year with about 153k miles on it. I recently had a mechanic look at it, who said it seemed fine, but when had the timing belt been replaced, since--if it goes--the valves go with it, and then the car wouldn't be worth much of anything.

Unfortunately, I bought it from a dealer who didn't give me any record of maintenance.

Should I replace the belt now? The mechanic estimated approximately $700. A fair price?

I have a 2000 civic ex with approx. 103,000 miles on it. I am going to replace my timinig belt, but many dealerships I have called reccomend to replace the 4 driving belts and fan belts as well. Can anyone tell me what these 4 drive belts are called?

When my car comes to a stop, whether at a stop light/sign, or coming off the freeway ramp, my car seems like it will die but does not?

My good friend just threw the timing belt on his 01 civic at 126K miles and our car (2000 civic) is at 116K. Our question is, are either of our engines interference engines? I'm doing my belt now before I'm stuck like him, but need to know if I should even start on his or just get a new head for it and go from there? This is a high octane web-site thanks for all the answers.

How do you remove the timing belt tensioner on a 1997 Honda Civic LX?

The bolt is extremely tight. Feels like I'm stripping it to remove it. Is this normal?
