    Hi, me again,


    I'm confused. When replacing belts ('97 Civic LX 4dr) how many of them
    should be replaced? Timing, AC, alternator belts... Am I missing one
    more?

    I've looked and looked through my Helms manual but they never show the
    entire assembly.


    Thank you!

    A/C, power steering pump (of course, if it's automatic) and alternator
    Internally is the timing belt

    no balancer shaft belt on a civic...

    The AC belt is a bitch, you have to pull a motor mount to
    replace that belt. I would wait until it snaps! :)
