Mend Honda Civic Reg Sound Gear

Honda Civic P reg - hissing sound when accelerating?

Recently purchased an old Honda Civic P reg which when accelerating emits a hissing sound at about 2000rpm in any gear. The sound increases the harder I accelerate - the fuel economy is also rubbish - last 2 tank fulls gave me 28 and 25 mpg - any ideas apart from sell would be gratefully accepted

A car mechanic friend I went to see simply pushed a metal bar up the exhaust pipe to clear a blockage - car now back to how it was although he recommended replacing the rear box as, in time, it would happen again
