Check for codes, possibly a sensor issue. Look through the H4 link in my sig.
Look through this link for gear ratios http://www.cb7tuner.com/vbb/showthread.php?t=37839

^ This generation Accord only had four-speed automatics. I would have thought it the same with your '96.

And yes, if you want a faster transmission, pull one out of a Prelude. M2B4, I think is the good LSD gearbox. Though if you want aftermarket support, say a better final drive, stick with an American-spec non-LSD trans. You can always put an aftermarket LSD in.

B-series trannies are too much custom work to get in, I don't think it's ever been done.

  • The OP complains about the trans in his '92, mentioning 5th gear
  • The next post suggests an auto trans troubleshooting page
  • I ask the obvious question: "Is it an auto or manual?"
  • I'm transformed into a zombie troll for asking such a stupid question
  • Lastly, I'm told that my '96 auto has only four forward gears
Wow

i would go to a junkyard and get the sensors hat go on the passenger side of the tranny by the axle. i replaced my tranny and gears would only work with either manual **** or sometimes they didnt work at all

Don't put an H22 trans in there, unless you want to tow a boat.
Seriously...

Try dumping the fluid and adding fresh OEM MTF.

We're confused because there's no fifth gear in any '92 Accord automatic transmission. He mentions a fifth gear, so it can only be a manual. So actually, now that I re-read it, Mike looks to be calling himself a zombie troll for his brain fart.
