Default Damn Transmission

Okay, I'm driving my 94' Integra LS last night. I put the thing in 5th and cruise. All of a sudden, it pops out. I thought it was just a fluke, but now the damn thing wont stay in when the motor is under any kind of strain. I think it might be the syncro's but is there anything i can due to ease the problem till I can replace the tranny In March with the motor swap? Thanks

drain the tranny fluid you got in there out and put synpower 80w-90 gear oil in it. works like a charm. i didnt have first or 3 gear in my tranny put 2.5 quarts of that in there and now it goes into gear like butter
