Tiburons.com

I was so excited to finally buy my 99 Tiburon, and then to find this forum. It doesn't look like much activity on here, but hoping I can get some answers to my questions. The check engine light is staying on, and have been to AutoZone to have it checked out. I was told it was a gas cap leak, but purchased a new one, and still the light has come on. I unhitched the battery cable, and went off for a day or so, but came back on. I'm also having a problem, when pumping gas, as it keeps stopping and won't let me pump steady. Does anyone have any ideas? I'll post pictures real soon. Thanks, tweetyb66

Hey, I have an 03 Tiburon and mine does the same thing when I fill it with gas. I found the last time I pumped my petro that if I adjust the insertion and angle of the nozzel, I get much better results. But still I can not hold it down full pressure, otherwise it does that annoying stopping thing. So either way, I end up taking way longer than I need to to fill up.

Sorry, I have nothing to offer you about your check engine light aside from taking it to an authorized Hyundai dealer/mechanic to have it looked at.

Good luck.
