| Description of the problem | My crv has acceleration problems when it idles in traffic for long periods it looses the ability to accelerate. It starts to sputter and then dies. But does start back up after sitting for a few minutes it also drives great when outside temps are below 68 degrees but has poor acceleration when outside temps are 70 degrees and above also i noticed there is a gas smell on the oil dip stick. Honda mechanics say they don't know what's wrong with it and there is no check engine light coming on to give me an idea of what is going on with the vehicle this happens no matter if i'm driving on a city road or private road my experience with this is in stop and go traffic that causes the vehicle to have to sit for long periods of time and idle when the acceleration problem happens i can only go 5 mph also vehicle stalls while trying to cross intersections after waiting on a traffic lights to change can someone help me please. |
