I have a 91' Honda Accord Lx 4 speed Automatic and I am wondered what is considered "High Mileage" for this particular car? It has 177,xxx miles, Just bought a couple weeks ago with a clear title and clear carfax report. Thanks!
Answer
Opinions vary very little- any vehicle with over 75,000 miles would be considered high mileage - it's not a matter of year per se but total miles so any year vehicle with 177000 miles would be a car that has very high mileage. The lifespan of most vehicle engines averages around 200,000 miles, but there are many vehicles that go well beyond that - it requires special attention with that kind of mileage, use synthetic or semi-synthetic motor oil for oil changes. I have a Mazda that I'm having a hard time giving up that has 226,000 miles on it and she's still going strong. Check out the links below for some advice on maintenance tips to keep the car in as good shape as possible.

Answer
most fan clutches have a a fluid in them. If this fluid leaks out, it no longer works properly. This site should explain the system very well. Also fan clutches are not an expensive or hard to change part.
