Key Beige

96-97 honda accord. 120k, what to do.?

I am inquiring for a relative. He has a 1996 Honda Accord, manual stick, that has been just running on oil changes for a while. He definitely did not do 50, 75 or 100K service. Timing belt was not changed, and that's actually the motivator behind talking about this with me.

How do you recommend he go and fix this? Ask for what service? Pay attention to what key parts?

PS. color of the car is beige.

he'll need to get all these done:

oil change (and new filter)
air filter
transmission fluid changed
radiator flush(if its dirty)
spark plugs and wires
fuel filter
FIC (fuel injection cleaning)
brakes
tires (if needed)

i have a 98 civic ex and just did all this for my 120k this summer (even though my car only has 105k on it). i did everything myself except the tranny and the radiator though. i have an automatic so i couldn't do the tranny w/o a machine that pumps out the old stuff. if your a DIY kinda person with cars and have the knack for it or know how, its much cheaper to do it yourself than a shop.
