My mom’s car is a hyundai eltrantra 2000 she bought it used for like a 6 hundred bucks & had it for three years so far. It’s need a lot of tlc. It’s good on gas. It’s has a lot of plastic pieces that are a pain to replace. I’ve had to change all the hose, ingine coil, spark plugs, raditor & fans, water pump, belts,over heating issues ect. It’s not hard to work on. hope this helps.

I found this on accord ex forum… hope this helps.
1. first i opened my bleeder valve and pumped the clutch to dispose of all the fluid into a container.
2. Next Crawl under your dash (i layed my seat back and layed on my back lookin up) and follow the linkage that is on your clutch pedal, u should come across a codder pin as shown circled in red. mine was bent around the rod it runs through but i just straightened it up and removed the pin, then slide out the rod ( also circled), which unattaches the master cylinder push rod thing to the clutch pedal.
3. Now u want to remove your fluid resevoir as it gets in your way, simple enough ill let u figure that out, and look down at the master cylinder attached to the fire wall. Circled in red is the pressure line u have to loosen and remove, and in green is the fluid feed line that runs from the resevoir to the master cylinder. loosen the hose clamps and remove as well.
4. Lastly, crawl back under your dash (sucks i know) and remove the bolts threaded onto the studs of the master cylinder that run through the firewall, in the picture they are circled in blue, the one on the top left is fairly awkward to get to but doable.
5. Now pull out the whole assembly from the engine bay, to install it goes the same as disassembly, make sure your hose clamps are good and tight, and make sure to bleed the clutch line and remove all air bubbles when done.

Usually cars that have overheated will continue to run after you turn them off .This is caused because the inside of the engine is so hot that the least amount of pressure causes the gas to fire and continue to run for a second or two.
Not sure, but the misfire you observed may be due to pre-mature ignition due to the high heat that resulted in the pistons firing in the wrong order.You could have also overheated it to the point you blew a head gasket. Check for possible water in your oil or oil in your water. This is a pretty good way of knowing. Otherwise check the compression of each cylinder
