Default 90 Accord tranny problem.

I bought a 90 Accord from a friend to fix up and sell. The only thing wrong with it is that the tranny (it's an automatic) slips when warm. Once it gets warmed up, it is like it is in neutral. Let it sit for a few, and it goes into gear again. Anyone know whats wrong with it?

first replace the fluid with honda atf. If that doesn't work buy a used transmission it will be cheaper that getting that one rebuilt.

Check your transmission fluid dipstick, if it is black and smells burnt, your transmission is fucked. I too have an extra tranny with only 70,000 miles on it if you are interested. I will let it go for 350 if you interested.
