Does anyone know what kind of engine oil a 2001 Hyundai Accent GL takes? I bought this used not too long ago and it didn't come with a manual.

1.6 I think. Might be the 1.8 But Im pretty sure its 1.6. Someone with an accent will be able to tell you.

I've got a 1.6. Perhaps it comes in 1.8.
Frankly I don't know anything about cars but I'm willing to learn the basics, hah.

I am sure that 10W30 will work

Thanks a lot man. I'm off to KMart to buy some right now. I'll be visiting this site again for sure. Thanks!

Haha, I already messed up and started a new topic. Sorry?
