hey i fixed my car!
i got rid of the pinging.. apparently, my distributor has been bad all along. it has been leaking oil and had some play on the shaft for bout a year now. well today, i was at the shop who rebuilt my motor to pick up some turbo parts i got sandblasted. anyway, while i was there and had access to a timing light, i decided to swap the distis with one i pulled from the yard a few weeks ago.. well DOH!! all along, my disti was bad! apparently, it was no longer advancing the timing like it's supposed to so it was always running retarded... WOW is all i can say now with a good working disti
oh and the HKS iridium plugs marlon lent me KICKS ARSE!! wanna sell them to me?
for cheap
anyway, i was at 9BTDC on the old, bad disti and getting ping at 15psi on 91 pumpgas... now i'm at 10BTDC, same boost, NO PING! and it pulls like mad
can't wait to dyno again
