I have a 91 honda accord lx. I wanted to know if there is any way to keep it from breaking down as in droping a new motor and tranny in or is there any other ways to keep it going?

If it is not broken, don't fix it.

What problems are you encountering now?

Get the engine mounts checked. Bad mounts would result in excessive****** when transmission engages.

Check idling speed as well. If it is too high, shocks would be felt when shifting into gear.
