1999 hyundai Elantra / gl 45
Getting engine code P0302 should I be looking at the Air intake sensor or the head gasket,
Car has a loud idle but got quieter when I opened the air filter compartment, it runs fine while moving.
Also the engine light is solid when idling, and will some time stay on when moving, but randomly will blinks on and off ( 1 sec to 2 sec intervals ) moving above 30 miles.

HI There,
You could be looking at one of a large variety of problems.  You could have a misfire.  The fuel pressure could be low.  The catalytic converter could be clogged.

Unfortunately, I don't have a good understanding of what your car is doing other than not accelerating very well.  Without anything else to go on, such as a trouble code, I'm not going to be able to provide a good path for you to follow.

In that case, I'd recommend you take the car to a good driveability shop or the dealer.  An experienced and good driveability mechanic will be able to help limit the possible causes just by feeling the issue you have.

Hope it helps
