I left ALL of my non-WOT timing alone. Yes the stock non-wot cruise load/rpm timing numbers are high. That is why its SOOOO bad to not kill the EGR tables when removing the EGR tube. The timing can go to the mid 40*'s (if one was to set the dizzy to 14*). That leads to the ping as the egr adds fuel in the recirculation of the gas so it would now be leaner with more timing.

If your not having a ping issue leave it alone. My thinking is Ford spent alot of time money and paid people who know a Hell-o-va lot more than I for cruise and non-wot timing so I left them alone. They had to make people happey with drivability so I left it alone.

People tend to get ping at cruise when they delete the egr tube and leave the eec alone. Our cars seem to be more ping prone though. I would again leave the tables in that area stock. You wont gain anything from changing them more than likely anyway.

4.9 volts is pegging it. I would not go WOT to be safe until you get that new Maf on.
