Hey now, I know everyone forgets about the few of us 2.0l owners left, but those timing chains were also more or less invincible (328k on mine). It's the '91 to early '92 years that have the balance chain issues that definitely do need to be updated. I agree with everyone else that the chain isn't a worry factor on the 9k others. With 200k I would replace the belts/tensioner and hoses and think about the fuel pump if original before a 2k trip.
