View Full Version : $ or $$$$$$$$$ oceanworker 09-03-2002, 10:02 PM How can I tell if I just have a gas ping or else the noise is transmission related? 91 w/ the Mazda 5-speed. Noise sounds like small peas rattling in a tin can when accelerating at rpm's over 4000. Doesn't happen when I engage the clutch and rev her, tho. Alec 09-03-2002, 10:08 PM it's pinging. it doesn't happen with the clutch in cause that takes the load off the motor. oceanworker 09-03-2002, 10:29 PM Thanks. Do you think a can of octane booster will fix it.? Alec 09-03-2002, 10:39 PM cheap and lousy fix. try cleaning your MAS and running some fuel injector cleaner through the tank. |
