Transmission problem
1989 Acura Integra 4 cyl Front Wheel Drive Automatic 210000 miles

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.
