no. its got nothing to do with getting gas, most likely the cause of your problem is a faulty starter and you only notice it after getting fuel is because when the engine is hot and shut it off for gas then you try to restart it, the starter has a dead spot. i own a gas station repair shop and this happens alot with the hyundai. hope this helps
