Accord DX

  • 140,000 miles

I have a manual 1989 Honda Accord DX. It shifts and drives fine in 1st, 2nd, 3rd, and 4th gears, but a little while after shifting it into fifth gear, it drops out? what could the problem be? I've heard it could possibly be either 5th gear itself, the whole transmission, or a synchro. please help!
