My 97 Honda Civic LX starts great, idles well and changes gears (auto) with no issue. It has been stalling after being warm on acceleration. When I reduce the load car runs. What could be the issue?
I think you are right with the head gasket, You can find out easy, because you can check it by removing the radiator cap, then put your hand on it and feel if any pressure is building in the radiator while the motor is running. Please don't open the cap, when the motor is hot. ONLY TRY THIS ON A COLD MOTOR.

I have a Honda civic LX 2009 and the RPM is 700. I understand that the normal RPM is 900. What could be the reason of the lower RPM on my car? Thanks in advance for your comments
I think the idle, in gear, should be about 750 rpm, definitely not 900. If you are looking at the tachometer, it isn't that accurate visually. a scanner should be connected to get an accurate reading. A little vibration at idle is not abnormal. But you might try adjusting the engine mounts to eliminate it.

Why is my honda hesistaing
simply add a can of SEAFOAM(parts store) to a 1/2 tank of Premium gas, and let it idle for 5 minutes. You've got water and corn by product in your lines from the ethanol gas. Common problem now EGS(ethanol gas syndrome). Give it a chance to work.

Its probably has to do something with the automatic transmission with sending info to the engine to adjust when needed to shift.
