Cold weather starting procedure for '03 Accent by martygus
Dec 31, 2008 (12:36 pm)

I am hoping some one knows the correct cold weather starting procedure (below 0) for a 2003 Hyundai accent? My grown daughter more often then not floods her accent everytime the temp drops below 0, then she calls me. I live 100 miles away, so it is tough for me to go rescue her. After a few hours of sitting, it always seems to start for her. I have had some cars where it was ok to hold the gas pedal part way down (but NOT pump) when it did not start without touching the pedal. Any advice I can pass along to my daughter would be greatly appreaciated. Thanks much...

Sounds like either your Crank Positioning Sensor or your Cam Shaft Sensor...
 
Both can come at a hefty price, I'd try the CPS first. Sometimes, the part will come with the manual to put it in - it's rather easy to do.
 
Eventually, if it is the CPS or the CSS, your car won't start anymore. It'll continue to crank but won't fire. Good luck!

That depends on whether you have the SOHC engine or the DOHC engine.

SOHC=single overhead cam
DOHC=dual overhead cam
 
Probably labeled on the valve cover. I would suspect that most Accents were SOHC.

in any case will the PVC be different from a SOHC as to a DOHC engine?

Possibly, but a quick check of a few online auto parts web sites only show the 1.5 ltr SOHC engine as a choice for the 99 Accent. I would hazard a guess that is the engine you have. Just to be safe, check the valve cover on the engine and look for SOHC or DOHC. Also, if you see something like 16V on the valve cover, that is a DOHC engine, but I would not expect to see that. YMMV.
