Why does my Honda CR-V idle so high?

Why does my Honda CRV no longer start?
If the Honda CR-V no longer starts and you don’t notice any noise or lights on the dashboard when starting, there may be a problem with the electrical system. The same signs can apply to a deeply discharged battery, so this should be ruled out first. If the electrical system malfunctions, a blown main fuse can prevent electricity from flowing.
What to do when your Honda engine won’t start?
Let the engine run for about 20 minutes with the hood closed. Remove the wire from the throttle linkage and turn the engine off. Let the engine sit for five to ten minutes, then try to restart the engine several times. If the engine doesn’t start, turn the key on.

Both work but the important thing is that you check for vacuum leaks if you have a Honda idle problem.
Why does my Honda CRV not start up?
We thought it was from sitting in the cold without running for a few days (it’s been very cold here), but it still wouldn’t start that afternoon. The clutch feels fine now, and the engine “wants” to turn over, but won’t. I don’t think it’s the battery because the engine makes noise and dash lights and everything come on.

When does a Honda CRV stall and idle?
The car stalls when you are going about 40-50 miles per hour and then drop it in neutral say for a turn, stop, etc. The car stalled on me on a busy intersection, I refuse to drive it until the problem is 100% corrected. I am 7 months pregnant and I can not put a newborn in this car.
