Thought I had an octane issue, Lower Intake bolts are ok, Cleaned MAS sensor, TPS replaced, IAC replaced, CPS replaced, ICM replaced, fuel filter replaced, air filter replaced, Temperture sensor replaced, No more pinging in Drive=3rd gear as I understand it, Pinging in OD=4th gear as I understand it, only when i step on it or am in speeds over 55 mph, when I let off the gas, it stops, and I can cruise at that speed with no pinging, only if I'm going up hill or into a head wind will it ping, if I let off gas, it stops, until I try to accelerate again or put a load on engine, tranny was totally rebuit with all updates about 9000 miles ago, any ideas on sensors for tranny? I heard about a torque converter sensor? Hard to replace and how? cost? And also a shift sensor? Once again cost, and is it hard to replace? And where do I ge these? Dealer only? Any ideas or suggestions appreciated, love this forum, good luck with your Explorers also, I have a love/hate relationship with mine, too much time and $$$ invested to quit now, kind of a challenge now, and by the way, I'm having her painted this week, and hopefully this will be the last sensor I have to deal with for awhile, and also replaced the radio in her last week, needed the tunes.....Help!
