Our car had a burnt valve last year at about 90000 miles. We brought it to a napa machine shop and had it re-machined. About a month ago we had it repaired at our local Honda dealer. They readjusted the valves which they said were way too tight. The car is stalling again and is difficult to restart. They referenced Honda technical bulletin 03-038. In researching this via google, it appears Honda failed to advise american-but not european-customers of a valve adjustment need that results in valves receding into the cylinder heads.
Car stalls without warning.

2001 Honda Cr-v. Car stalls while idling. Risk of being rear-ended when it occurs at a signal and the light turns green, or if I am in the #1 lane waiting to make a left-turn. Honda corp. Is aware that their 99-01 Cr-v models have cylinder head problems that cause this, but they are not offering to cover the $3000 needed to replace the cylinder head.
