#1558 of 1685 Size of Fuel Tank by admpilot Apr 23, 2006 (6:03 pm)
I have a 2002 Accent GL and the most I've got from a fuel tank is 200 miles in the city. Could anyone tell me how big is this tank so that I can figure out my MPG? Thank you to all of you. Replies to this message: altair4 (Apr 24, 2006 7:37 am)

Replying to: admpilot (Apr 23, 2006 6:03 pm) You don't need to know the size of the tank to calculate your MPG. You simply fill-up and record your odometer reading, then drive. Then the next time you buy gas, you fill-up again. Record the amount of fuel purchased and the odometer reading again. Calculate how many miles you drove then divide the miles by the amount of gasoline purchased. That's your MPG.   You will need to know the capacity of the tank to determine your driving range. Edmunds.com lists the tank capacity of the 4 door Accent GL as 11.9 gallons. 2 door models apparently have the same capacity. I'd use 10 (leave yourself a safety margin) times your MPG to calculate your range.

Replying to: brunshaw (Mar 30, 2006 1:37 pm) I had a problem with brakes on my honda before. Turns out the shop but the wrong pads on. They made a noise though and I felt a clunk when I would press on the pedal. However, if you got these put on at a Hyundai dealership then that shouldn't be it. How soon after did it start happening?

Who has gone over 100k on the accent water pump and still going? "> Replies to this message: phillbill (May 20, 2006 4:35 pm)

Replying to: 99accent (May 19, 2006 8:33 am) The belts wont break dead on 100k, but when the engine belt and the water pump belt go past the 4 yr (40,000 mile) mark, they're more prone to breaking with age / perrishing / wear and tear etc.   Only cost me an extra £100-£135 to change the belts as part of my 50,000 mile service, well worth it if it saves your engine.
#1566 of 1685 Help with a check engine light code P0441 by djdublm May 21, 2006 (1:17 pm)
This is for a friend of mine her check engine light is on we took her car to AutoZone and they checked the code and its a P0441 which states the PCM has determined that the purge flow in the evaporative emission control system is incorrect for the current engince operating conditions. So what do we do for this is this something i can possibly fix or is it going to need a mechanic with more diagnostic tools that what a shade tree mechanic might have? Thanks for any help Replies to this message: lukeyn (Oct 07, 2006 6:11 am)
