my car used to ping with the 93 and also a bit with the 91 tune.
Now with the same gas i used before my car doesnt ping with neither 91 or 93 tune?? i know thats good , but why??
the only thing that i added on was an o/r X pipe.

anyone know why is this happening...
 
no dude:nono: , the piging sound would be so obvious from the front.My xpipes sound is coming from the middle and backwards.if there was any pinging i would hear it ...anyone else!

he was just kidding with you. i think the :D after his comments made that obvious.


who did your tune. the xcal2 comes blank and the retailer programs a tune in based on your mods

dude , forget who did the tune and when and how. I asked a clear question...my car used to ping on a certain tune , now it doesnt anymore on that "Exact" tune!!! why? thats all i wanna know. it might be that the weather is a bit cooler now.thats the only reason i can think of .other then that i really dont know
 
it actually does matter who did the tune. I got mine from JMS and the damn thing pings like a mother. I have to run 93 octane on my 91 tune and it still pings sometimes at higher rpms. Since you dont seem to care for anyone's advice and cant take a joke, call your tuner and ask them. they programmed it, they should be able to help.

you will never get any help from me talking like that.

first you chew out a long time member who was just joking. then you are rude when i am trying to get some background to help answer your question.

if other members want to help you thats up to them, but I will not untill you loose the attitude
 
Like others have said, it sounds like your tune. I had the same problem and had to go back to my tuner. Evrything is ok now. I can't answer your question about the x-pipe. I would think it would lean it out more. Your tuner may have to back out your timing some. Pearl02.
 
Could be that some gas causes ping and some does not. A lot of factors are involved in pinging including weather, altitude, octane, etc.

Congrats on pissing off one of the most knowledgable people on this board also BTW...

where do you live? in cold weather states, the gas is altered for winter. that could cause the problem. also, are you getting gas from the same place? have you done any other mods since you last ran the tune? gears for instance could potentially lower engine load and cause the computer to run a different timing table than the last time. what about spark plugs? maybe they aren't burning as hot as before. it could be a number of reasons.
