I have a 1992 explorer that has very bad pinging under any load and at wide open throttle. I just had the heads replaced about a year ago and that is when my pinging started. I have also done quite a bit to try and remedy the problem. I run 87 octane cuz that is what it was made to run on! New plugs and wires (splitfire), K&N filter, hypertech performance chip, new fuel filter, fuel pressure regulator, new O2 sensor, cleaned the MAF sensor. I have also removed the octane shorting block and it helped but it is still bad. Higher octane fuel helps but it shouldnt need it. I am desperate for any ideas or suggestions that may help. I am getting very frustrated over it. Thanks
