Hey guys, quick question.
I don't have many mods on my car. I have '92 5.0 LX AOD, with a blue superchip, flowmasters, CAI, and a shift kit. My problem is, whenever I give my car the gas, like, seriously floor it, I can hear a pinging noise coming from my engine. I can only really hear it when I floor it, you can't even really hear it when I am normally driving. Anybody have any ideas as to what it might be? Many people have told me that its probably a valve tap, but i'm not sure. I bought some of that Lucas treatment product that you mix with your oil. It works good, fixed my problem with my oil gauge, but it didn't do anything for the pinging. I thought it also might have been because of the 93 octane that I put in my car because of the superchip, but when I ran it with regular, I still got the same noise. I really hope that it isn't anything serious like a rod knock or something. I will be pissed. Thanks in advance for any input guys!
