dgshannon Posted July 15, 2009 Report Share Posted July 15, 2009 what is pinking? A misunderstanding of the word "pinging", which is pre-detonation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the addict Posted July 15, 2009 Report Share Posted July 15, 2009 (edited) Try using the highest Octane Unleaeded you can get Shell is a good one or 50/50 with Avgas, as said above pinking is pre ignition/detonating of the fuel via heat or compression or both Edited July 15, 2009 by The Addict Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andysv1k Posted July 15, 2009 Report Share Posted July 15, 2009 Can it not be tuned out at the carb though rather than altering the fuel octane? Is it related to altitude too? there must be a good reason for it happening. Andy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
