You can't. Skilled mechs can replace the timing chain by cutting the old one connecting a new one and very carefully feeding it thru, but then the tensioner still needs replacing. Easiest method is to buy a car that has 100k miles (or less),no need to buy problems. There are many cars on this board that have very hi mileages, BUT all have had dedicated TLC and lotsa repairs, conditions under which even Honda Civics equal or better these mileage achievements.
