I have a 2001 Hyundai Santa Fe that i purchaed used from Hyundai in Fountain Valley for 11,000. It has been a great car but the timing belt broke the first year and destroyed the engine. Hyundai put in a new engine at around 37,000.
I painted it, new tires, brakes, rotors, tune up, ac recharge and new pcv,egr and mass flow. It has been running good but the last couple of days I have been getting a slight lag when I accelarate. Tonight i barely made it up a hill with 4 teens in the car, I had to pump it. All that work was around 25,000 miles so I doubt that it would be anything to do with that. I ran my code tester and it came up with zero codes and it does not display a check engine light. I changed the oil and put in techron fuel injector cleaner but still has the problem. Anybody have a clue what has going on. I would think a fuel filter but the santa fe has one that never needs testing. Walmart will clean your injectors for 20 bucks but is it coming from there. I wish it would throw a code so I could find out as I want it working good because my son will be driving to college in the fall and I want it safe for him.:help:
