Slightly Old Gas More Likley to Ping? - 04/17/15 12:19 AM
Quick question, guys...
I noticed that when my Charger is under WOT, it pinged a bit. I went to a heat range colder in plug and put in some fresh gas. The gas that was in it was maybe a month old? No more pinging.
Fast forward three weeks and the pinging is back. Can gas start deteriorating that quickly? It's the ethanol 93 octane swill with Stabil added. Any ideas?
The engine is a 10.4:1 compression, mild cam, aluminum heads so I know I am near the edge...
