Author Topic: pinging? loteqredneq ¯ Member # 6128 posted                                 1989 gt... my car has a cooling problem, sometimes it runs cool, sometimes it runs hot. when its cool it runs perfect, but when it is hot its pings really bad when i get on it. im not so worried about the cooling problem b/c that will be fixed soon, but i want to know why it pings only when hot. i have checked the timing numerous times and it is always at 10*. any input is appreciated! -------------------- 90 gt: weekday warrior 3:73's JBA shorties bbk gripps tokico hp's Posts: 108 | From: antioch | Registered: Oct 2005  |  : 92stangLX ¯ Member # 3252 posted                              Excessive heat can make the engine ping. When you fix your cooling problem your pinging will probably go away too. Posts: 5302 | From: San Francisco | Registered: Sep 2003  |  :
