    Replacing the fuel tank AIR filter

    Re: Fuel Tank Air Filter / Fuel Filter I finally got around to replacing my fuel tank AIR filter today. It's a bit of a PITA, but not too bad if you don't mind hanging over the trunk sill while you're working. If you want to be more comfortable, you can pull the rear seat back out. Step 1...

    5.0 non R-Spec fuel consumption, reviews?

    Is anyone aware of real-world fuel economy reports for the new NON R-Spec 5.0L V8 trim level? I found this list which puts it in-line with the 4.6 (17/26/20). Also, if anyone is aware of a review of the new model that would also be appreciated. I was surprised that the Hyundai site had the...

    Fuel spillage during fill-up?

    I had read on the Genesis section that some Genny owners were having issues with fuel spilling out when the pump handle shuts off during a fill-up. It seems to be related to an issue with the vent line being pinched or twisted, which makes perfect sense. This has happened to me both times...

    Reducing fuel pressure for more power

    This is to supplement the discussions on reflashing the ECU. At wide open throttle the motor defaults to open loop and dumps in all the fuel it can resulting in an over rich mixture of around 11:1 or less. Ideal is about 12.8-13:1. Stock fuel pressure is regulated at 55 PSI. Reducing this fuel...

    Fuel Filter Replacement

    Our manuals say to change the fuel filter every 37,500 or 30 months. Has anyone had this repair done? If so, how much did it cost and how long did it take?

    Fuel Filler Overflow

    I have had my 2011 Genesis 4.6 about 6 weeks (1500 miles) now. EVERY time I refuel, the gasoline overflows out of the filler tube when the pump shuts off. I have tried manually slowing the flow when I think it is nearly full, but that does not help. We then have a gasoline smell for some time...

    Fuel Gauge Tick

    I have an unusual situation with the fuel gauge needle. Most of the time, not always, at start up and shut down the fuel needle ticks continuously against the stop on empty. The ticking continues on start up until the other gauges come to life and after shut down until the cabin lights go out...

    Bad Fuel Pump

    Today wasn't a good day. I had planned a short trip of a couple hundred miles, but less than 15 miles from home my 09 Genny 4.6 stalled and I had to pull off the road. I tried several times to start it but no luck. I had to have it towed in for the second time since I bought it in February of...

    What Fuel Grade Do You Use?

    I bought a new 4.6 and I was reading a Car & Driver review that mentioned that you could run Premium and Regular in the V8. It said that there was not that much difference in performance. What do most of you run?? What about mid grade?
