    Hi,

    I have a 2000 Honda CRV with 76,374 miles on it. Recently the car
    started stalling within the first few minutes of driving whenever
    stopping at a stop light or stop sign. We started taking the extra
    5-10 minutest to let the car warm up before driving it and that seemed
    to help, but what does this problem indicate? Someone suggested that I
    change the spark plugs, but that didn't really have any affect.

    two things to check:

    1. valve lash
    2. the "hard" idle adjustment.

    DO NOT GO ON ANY LONG DRIVES WITH THE Cr-V !!!

    Your valves are too tight and you'll burn one. Your North American
    owner's manual is incorrect about the valve adjustment interval, and it
    should read 30,000 Miles (50,000 Km).

    When you get them adjusted, (anybody can do it) ask to have them set on
    the loose side of the specs.
