Check engine code P0442, emissions leak detected. 2000 Tiburon 5 speed manual, air build up in gas tank makes it so at the gas station the pump stops like its "full" every five seconds. I just bought this car and it wasnt on then, so obviously the dealer just reset the light so it wouldnt come on before I bought it. Any ideas how I should proceed with this problem? Is it a leak in the fuel system? Catalytic converter?

I'd replace the gas cap.
P0442: Evaporative Emission (EVAP) System Small Leak Detected
With a P0442, the most common repair is to:
Remove and reinstall the gas cap, clear the codes, and drive for a day and see if the codes come back.
Otherwise, replace the gas cap, or
Inspect the EVAP system for cuts/holes in tubes/hoses
