Hey guys, I have a 01 Gt convertible that pings like crazy if I don't use
Super Unleaded (Exxon preferably) it pings under a load.anything else just
driving under a small load like accelerating it pings lightly. now I have
considered doing the water spray in the intake and seeing if it's carbon
build up but after the next test I'm not so sure now.
also considered some top engine cleaners as well.
Now here's my another thing I did, my buddy let me borrow a Predator tuner
just so I could do some data logging and I noticed that when running down
the hi-way the timing is running anywhere from 38 to 48 deg. of timing even
when it was pinging. it never retarded that much when it was pinging.
Now I have some thoughts on this but I want the lists opinion on this
problem and see if I'm going in the right direction here.
Thanks Charles
