Three problems related to gasoline engine have been reported for the 1998 Hyundai Accent. The most recently reported issues are listed below.
Transmission jumped out of gear and the gears sticks sometimes. Low fuel light, stopped operating/engine oil spot under hood, and rough idle. Dealer notified. The vehicle crack in fuel tank.
Momentary eng. Shut down/check eng. Light on. Resumes without restarting. Check eng. Light goes off.
Car seems to "hic-cup" - the engine seems to "shut off" and "turn on" again for a second or two while driving. As this happens, the "check engine" light stays lit for about 3 seconds. I have not contacted my dealer yet (it happened over the weekend), but I have sent an email to Hyundai motor about the problem. I have also read in several postings on the internet about other 1998 Accent owners having the same problem.
