My 2002 Optima started wanting to stall at idle and now I can't start it at all. The Check Engine light did come on and removing the plastic cover revealed a good-sized hole in a hose running between the large metal units (I know, wonderful description). Taping the hose to test it didn't help not being able to start the car, though. I checked the plug wires and they look okay. Next step? Could it be the fuel filter? If so, where do I find that?
