on my 1989 Acura Integra, my transmission starts erratically shifting around 45 mph up to 60 and wont shift into fourth gear. Also the cruise control doesn't work whenever its erratically shifting, but does work when it does shift into fourth gear every now and then.
WHAT COULD BE THE PROBLEM!!!!!

Hi deanvx1,

Possible causes for the problem are :

1. Shift cable broken/out of adjustment.
2. 3-4 shift valve stuck
3. Shift timing valve/cuumulator stuck.
