GT. How can I set the timing?
Go to YouTube, and enter "2005 Hyundai Tiburon GT valve timing" in the search box. You will find several videos that deal with changing the timing belt and water pump. Toward the end of each video, when they are reassembling the components, they will show the correct way to set the crankshaft pulley and cam pulleys to properly time the engine.

Can I use synthetic oil in 06 Tiburon?
Check with the application catalogue of your choice of oil brand and you should find your car listed with the appropriate grade of synthetic oil.
There is a note of caution, especially with an engine that has already covered a fair mileage. Depending on the service history and the type of oil used in the past, the engine could be clean, slightly dirty or very dirty inside and changing to a high detergent oil if the engine is dirty could cause problems. Detergent oils scour the inside and cleans things and holds the dirt in suspension so it gets drained at the next oil change.
The trouble is, there is a limit to how much dirt the oil can hold and if that limit is reached mass dumping can happen - blocking filters and oilways.
It is a while since I encountered an engine that died of a thrombosis and the additive packs of oils have been improving all the time but the point should be considered...

My 2001 hyundia Tiburon won't start but turns over.
Hi Donna,
The most common problems with an engine that will not start are lack of fuel in the tank, water in the fuel, the fuel pump not working or there is no spark for ignition.
Realistically, if you know little about engines you need help from a mechanic or someone with knowledge. The only quick try you could apply is to turn on the ignition, then thump the fuel tank with a rubber mallet or your fist. If the pump is stuck, this might jar it into action, but you still need a mechanic to repair or replace the pump, as it is inside the fuel tank.
Good luck.

My '03 Tiburon has problems shifting on its' own
the right direction is to have the fault codes read first
they will reveal a code that refers to TR sensor , VSS sensor or TCM
indicates a problem servo/s or solenoids
If the oil has not been changed in the last 60,000miles then that would be a good option to do after the fault codes reading

Headlight problems
What is the make and model of your vehicle? You need a wiring schematic to troubleshoot. It's possible there is a fuseable link in the wire itself that is bad.
