Books have been written on this. I would learn to troubleshoot, and buy the tools such as a multi meter, fuel/vacuum tester. Many of the parts will work fine for decades. It's the seals and rubber items that will get you more times than not. Always replace any rubber items while you are in there. The electrical and vacuum stuff is fairly reliable in my opinion.
I only got stopped cold a few times in 10 years, once for a radiator hose and another from a leaking fuel injector body and another from a leaking fuel line. You do know about the timing belt?
