Replying to: robertdct (May 24, 2009 6:54 pm) This may not be related to your air conditioning at all. There is something called a "Fast Idle Thermo Valve" that oftentimes causes idle problems in Hondas and it may just need adjustment. Perhaps someone with technical expertise will jump in and give a hand. Anyone? tidester, host SUVs and Smart Shopper Replies to this message: robertdct (May 25, 2009 2:51 pm)

Replying to: tidester (May 25, 2009 3:53 am) Thanks for the informaton but when I checked it out I found that the "Fast Idle Thermo Valve" is only used on the CRV's with automatic transaxle not the 5 speed manual transaxle like we have. This is a tough one. I hate to return to the Honda dealer and get hosed again. Thanks again tidester.
