What is the firing order for a Hyundai Elantra 1.6L?

You didn't mention the year of your car, but from what I found (1993) the 1.6 in the Elantra firing order is 1-3-4-2. Hyundai has the service manuals on line. Click on the "Shop" tab, select your car from the drop-down menus and search away.

How do you change the headlight in a 2004 accent?

Passenger side headlight replacement:

Where the wires reach the back of the headlight assembly, feel around the connector for two nubs on opposing sides. These are lock tabs. Depress them and remove the wiring connector from the back of the bulb.

"Peel" the rubber gasket from the headlight assembly, until it comes loose. Pull the rubber gasket from the bulb if you like, it makes the next step easier.

Reach down on the passenger side of the three bulb terminals, and feel the spring steel wire. Push that towards the front of the car, and rotate it out towards the passenger side of the car. It doesn't take much. Once it comes out of it's groove, it will swing up and the bulb can be removed.

Note the three tabs on the bulb, those fit into the headlight bucket on assembly.

To reassemble, get your new bulb (do not touch it with anything other than a clean cloth!) insert it into the headlight bucket, clip it in place, replace the rubber seal, then the connector. Done!

  • Remove the alternator.Note the position of the alternator bracket on the water pump it must be installed in the same position when installing the water pump.Remove the alternator bracket bolts they're also water pump bolts and then remove the other four bolts from the water pump
  • Loosen the hose clamp and then disconnect the water pump coolant inlet pipe connection hose.Detach the coolant inlet pipes from the block and then disconnect the coolant inlet pipe from the water pump mounting boss.Remove and discard the old o-ring
  • Clean the bolt threads and the threaded holes in the engine to remove corrosion and sealant
  • Compare the new pump to the old one to make sure they're identical
  • Remove all traces of old gasket material from the engine with a gasket scraper

It's clear that whoever entered this entry up to this point is able to cut and paste from a haynes manual however they certainly never performed this job in real life. What you see above is all quoted word for word from a haynes repair manual. They state "then remove the other four bolts from the water pump ". This is how I know they did not actually do this job because the haynes manual is in error. You cannot access two of those bolts without removing the timing cover. This is not optional! First the crank pulley must be pulled off. You may need special tools to do this but not a pulley puller or anything an impact gun and a decent compressor to power it. And unlike many crank pulley bolts this one is not reverse threaded, it comes off in the standard direction. A chain wrench or something around the pulley may be tried but save yourself the agony of realizing its virtually impossible and use an impact gun(not electric typically they don't have enough power). Once the pulley is off the rest of the timing cover bolts should be removed and then the timing cover providing access to the other 2 water pump bolts which are located underneath the timing cover. Also before you start this job it is a good idea to remove the power steering pump bracket bolts and move the power steering pump out of the way, being careful not to damage the lines in the process. You do not need to move it much but it will save you some agony trying to access the water pump and pulley from the top.

I agree, who ever wrote the very top portion Just copied the Haynes manual. Here is how it is done. Removing the Negative battery cable is optional. Loosen the power steering pump and remove the belt. Completely remove the power steering pump from it's brackets and swing it out of the way. Remove the power steering pump resevior and the radiator overflow resevior. Next loosen and remove the belt from the alternator. Remove the 2 bolts that attach the adjustment plate for the alternator to the water pump. Loosen the bolt that holds the bottom of the alternator and push the alternator out of the way. There is no reason to remove the alternator from the vehicle. Get a Chain Wrench which is available at most auto parts stores. I got mine from Harbor Freight. Wrap the Chain Wrench around the Harmonic balancer and make sure that it is against a solid point of the engine. Get a socket large enough to fit the bolt that holds the harmonic balancer to the crank shaft. Once you get the harmonic balancer off, get a floor jack and a block of wood and position the wood on the flange of the oil pan. Raise the jack to support the weight of the engine. DO NOT jack up the engine using the oil pan. If you do, damage WILL result from the weight of the engine. Once you have the engine supported remove the motor mount. Remove the top half of the timing belt

cover. Then the bottom half will be able to come off. Release the timing belt tensioner and remove the timing belt. AT THIS POINT DO NOT ROTATE THE ENGINE OR THE CAM SHAFTS. Put a white mark on the timing belt and the cam shaft pulley. Therefore the timing belt will be put back on in the exact position it was removed. Since the timing belt is off, inspect it for uneven wear or cracks. If the belt is worn or cracked, then I recommend it be replaced. Remove the Idler pully on the right that is used for the timing belt. At this point, the bolts for the water pump are accessible.

Where is the starter located on a 1997 Hyundai Sonata?

On the 4 cylinder, it is located on the passenger side of the car on the firewall side of the engine. There is two bolts (I believe they take a 14mm socket). The bolts go through the bell housing and into the starter. You can take the two bolts out, then move the starter toward the driver side of the car to pull it out of the bell housing. Then you should be able to move the starter out from behind the engine at little bit in order to disconnect the wiring.

Are oil leaks a common problem on a 2003 Hyundai accent?

I have been doing my own oil changes for most of the time we have owned the car. I always replace the oil drain plug washer with new ones (purchased from a Hyundai dealer) yet there has always been a slight leak at the plug; not enough to even require adding oil between changes but annoying as it leaves stains on the driveway.

I finally decided to investigate so I put the car up on ramps, drained the oil, and crawled under it with a mirror to investigate. The problem turns out to be four raised "bumps" that appear to be spot welds holding the threaded insert that the oil drain plug screws into. These welds are within the outside diameter of the washer and prevent it from completely sealing.

My solution was to use a slightly small OD crushable washer purchased at a local auto parts store. No more leak.

Comment on something else: The factory shop manual calls for removing the bumper cover (which requires removing the headlight assemblies) in order to replace the windshield washer pump. Not necessary. Remove the two clips at the front of the fender liner, pull it down, and you're looking at the pump. Takes about 5 minutes start to finish.
