Hello all.. Im new to h-f.com. Only found this site last night and have spent a few hours going through a lot of the topics. Im really impressed not only by the technical savvy of some you out there but also the good natured way in which everyone communicates here.

I own a 91 scoupe gls n/a. I bought it to teach my wife to drive because it seemed like a good car for her to learn on and was reasonably priced.
Havent had to many problems with it, which is a blessing because Im not the most mechanically adept person around!

I had a few problems early on but that was more through previous owner(s)? neglect more than anything else. Its quite straight on one side but has a couple of small dents on the left hand side. Ive had a new alternator put in , changed the spark plugs , oil and filter and it seems to be running as good as can be expected.

I do have one question. Id like to fit what we call in Australia a "pod" filter (I believe its called a ram intake or something like that overseas). The only thing Im unsure of is the what I think is the air flow sensor (bear with me ...told ya I wasnt very mechanical) I have included a photo I found in another post, hope Im not breaking any rules. Id just like to know if the way this persons pod filter and air flow sensor are set up correctly? So if I just copy this persons set up I should be sweet ?

The first photo is not my car.. the following photos are of my car....


Any help would be great. I dont plan on doing much with this car. Maybe some new rims and try to fix the left hand side panels and of course the pod filter. Thanks for taking time to read.....

Hi and welcome here.

In my opinion the Airflowmeter (MAF) isnt positined good. It only measures the air coming in the engine bay at this position.
It has to put in to airintake plumbing somewhere. It has to measures the air going into the motor.

My former scoupe was the same as yours. I had an an K&N Scoupe airfilter. This lets the MAF on its original place, but you still
have the original metallichousing. You can cut some off so you can hear the sound of the filter more.

Found a picture of my old scoupe and airfilterhousing

Thats what I was thinking. Thanks for the reply.

Also my petrol gauge isnt working. Was wondering if this is a common problem in the scoupes ... or just something unique to my car.

A common problem with the petrolgauge is that when it reads dead empty there is stil 10-15liter in it. But it is still working.

Welcome to the forum.Hope you have great time.
Enjoy.....!!!

Hey I had this problem. Take up the carpet in your boot and towards the back seats there's a little plate. Unscrew this and what comes out is your fuel sender. If you can order a new one from Hyundai or find one from a wreckers yard, then it should work after just putting a new one in.

Hope that helps
