I feel your pain...I just dumped over $1,000 into my 2004 Tiburon GT v6 a year ago only for it to break down in July. I want to fix her but not sure if it wouldn't involve a new engine... Ohhh the problems of tibby owners.

For future reference check your coolant temp sensor and map sensor. Sensors aside a faulty regulator and vacuum leaks will also cause overfuelling
