Does anyone know what's going on?

It started with a misfire on cylinder 1, replaced all plugs but found oil in cylinders 1, 4, and 5. I replaced the valve cover gaskets, tightened up the the throttle cables because the pedal felt rather loose. After everything went to start the car and it wasn't having it. Popped the intake manifold off again double checked wires and hoses, everything looked good. Thought it might have been the throttle cables being to tight so I loosed them back, still didn't start. Checked and cleaned the IAC, ran the car without it and it rough idled between 500 and 1000rpm. Cleaned the throttle body, MAF, replaced the IAC entirely with a new one, tried a used tps and still no luck.

Hyundai Beta ii 2.0l boosting to 200hp

Hello, im a newb, just asking if a beta 2.0 engine can be safely boosted to 200hp at the crank with stock internals.

A kia proceed with such engine has ended up in my hands, and even though it is already race spec, weight reduced with suspension and brakes modded, it's a retired cup car so the engine was kept stock.

Looking to add more power to make it a bit more competitive around track. Im welcome to all suggestions

Thinking of buying a 06 Tiburon GT Limited 167-170k, manual transmission- advice needed

Hello all,

I happened to run into someone selling a Hyundai Tiburon with close to 170k miles on it, I always wanted one of these when I was in college and was wondering what everyone's thoughts where on the year, model, and how these cars aged. Any insight would be great. Thanks

Power Steering fluid needs changing, how do I find the right kind for my 06 tib?

Am in the UK so any uk shops/websites/brands would help me a lot more. My mechanic said I should get ATF fluid as it’s an older car, is that true and any recommendations/advice?

Need some suggestions

Hey so I've been having some issues for a little bit now with rough idling on my 180k 2007 2.0 Tib. It all started one night when i took a short (spirited) drive and after reaching my destination, and coming back to turn the car on, i got a loud pop and very rough idle. Turns out my spark plug in cylinder three quite literally shot out of the engine (left a dent and all). So after that i replaced the spark plugs, and after a short while started getting sputtering and rough idling. I did an oil change, air filter, and idle air control valve, and it only seemed to have gotten worse to the point where it would stall while idling. Took it to my main shop, and they said the battery terminals were loose and the valve cover gasket + spark plug tube seals were pretty messed up, which made sense based on previous occurrences. after getting the car back and then claiming it drove great on a test drive, i'm still getting that sputtering and rough idle. it doesn't stall anymore which is a plus but obviously still has issues. my next thoughts would be either throttle position sensor, throttle body, maf, or fuel injectors. any opinions from anyone that made it this far?

Help 2007 tiburon 2.7 L. What hose goes here.

Hi there folks, new to the forum. Car rebuild has been a nightmare, the only piece left is this hose. I can’t remember what goes there or what it hooks to. Even a picture would be helpful. Thanks

Trouble with highway speeds

My 2003 v6 has trouble reaching highway speeds without using high rpms. Is this normal for older cars? The check engine light is on but I think it's because of the camshaft sensor. Could that have anything to do with it?
