Timing Issue? I wish I could get this thing to stop pinging!
OK, fixed several problems only to uncover more, now after new plugs and an adjustable vac can my truck PINGS under various conditions.
I have my initial timing down to 10 degrees and have eliminated all but a few situations, namely hard accelerating out of a turn. Partial and WOT throttle under load (going up hill) no longer ping but if you goose hard it coming out of a turn it will ping, but if you accelerate moderately and build to full throttle it is OK...
I really wish I could get it back to how it behaved with the *wrong* plugs in regards to not pinging...
I was thinking about lighter mech adv weights in my dizzy and playing with spring combos and adding vac adv to tune my curve, as it is I am all in around 2000 RPM - and right now my total mechanical advance is 15 degrees
Any thoughts gentlemen?Burning gunpowder and gasoline daily for over 20 years and counting!
Sorry for your loss of friend Mike McGee, Shine. Great trans men are few and far between, it seems. Sadly, Mike Frade was only 66 and had been talking about retirement for ten years that I know...
