I am not sure whether it is the petrol or whether I should return to Nizpro and get the lads to check it out. Is this potentially damaging even though it is only minimal pinging and only when given it some stick. Your advice would be appreciated.ThanksDeano Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/25349-engine-pinging/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

If not, then maybe it's also worth joining there and posting the problem asking for their advice directly...Good luck with it mate!Jack Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/25349-engine-pinging/#findComment-381111 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Until then you can either:- Flash the car to a softer tune- Take it easy- Try a different fuel/supplier- Run some octane boost.

gogo Member of team Kittens Member 609 Member For: 21y 1m 27d Location: Melbourne Posted 13/05/06 11:50 AM Share Posted 13/05/06 11:50 AM give the boys a call on Monday, as Jack suggested, flash in the 95 tune.If actual fuel quality is lower than about 96, I would expect you will get slight pinging on a 98 tune. This is normal but not good, and why you should have a 95 tune to flash if you cant get 98 fuel or get a bad batch. You also may just want to run that fuel through - drive it easy in the mean time!!Let us know how it goes!Cheers,Ben.
