pinging

[toast]

sg11, it really should not be pinging. when are you hearing this? is it just at high speed crusing? or when accelerating? or idle?

as mentioned i would get some brand name gas, a good fuel injector cleaner and add it to the tank and drive it hard to try to clean out any dirt/carbon. if that doesn't do it, you should have it looked at. not good to run lean like that for too long.

I hear it mostly during light throttle conditions when driving around at lower rpms or going up a hill. I always use quality gas (shell, sunoco, exxon).
