I'm currently driving a 1988 Accord Limited it has a carbed engine with about 177 000 KM's Its an auto
Last week when I was driving it on the highway I tried doing a pass while going uphill and the car downshifted and it did not shift again till around 5800 RPM. I found this to be quite wierd as the car doesn't usually do that.
Now the car is acting really wierd. If i'm on a straight road cruising and i punch the gas the car usually downshifts and the rpm's go up. Now it won't even do that. and going uphill it still won't gear down until around 6000 RPm's
So if anybody has any idea what the problem could be...Transmission? timing belt?, Carb? I really am not all that knowledgble in car repair and any help in identifing the problem would be appreciated
