      No issue pulling some timing Tim. My motor started pinging more as soon as the weather cooled off also. If its happening to both of us, it must be normal, for whatever reason.

      That engine crank spinny jig thingy sounds really cool. Im not sure that you have a motor issue though, my oil pressure is the same as yours. That would mean that if your motor isn't right, mine might not be right either. I don't want to think about that.

      Anyway (On that painful possibility) , I'm off to bartend a New Years event. Happy New Year everybody!

      Winter blend fuel could be one issue. Another could be that you're running leaner with the super cold air.
