OK, before anyone jumps on me, I did a search and tried everything that was suggected: complete tuneup with properly gapped plugs, new wires, cleaned MAF and idle control, checked intake bolts, replaced fuel filter, checked all vacuum hoses (they all seemed fine - no hardening) and seafoamed it (twice). I'm still pinging. It's a 92 2wd w/ 117k. Been in my family for around 8 years. Has pinged since my mom bought it w/ 50k on the clock. Now I have it (great for my new family), and I'm determined to rid myself of the ping. It happens under load between 1.5 an 3k on the tach. Downshift and take it above 3k and it's gone. Other than the ping it runs, drives and looks great. Go figure. I run 91 octane, anything less and it gets really bad. Any ideas, O wizards of the Exploder World??
P.S. - I haven't pulled the codes, Autozone said they only pull '96 and up. I'll have to do the old voltmeter trick I 'spose....
Thx
