  Subject: timing/ pinging IP: Logged
  
Message: Does anyone know if advancing or retarding the timing will eliminate, or help a pinging problem?  I have a 2000 with a 5.9L, and it is pinging pretty bad.  I am getting ready to advance the timing, but was wondering if this is going to affect the pinging problem, either positively or negatively.  Thanks.

Message: advancing it will only make it worse. take the truck in to get it flashed which retards the timing a bit.

Message: don't know about that but i had some pinging when the engine was onder stress. then i swiched to 93 octane and the pinging, or i guess preignition, went away temporally. once i installed 8 fms injectors my problem was solved. this also got rid of some minor hesitation.

Message: When you can manually adjust the timing, retarding will reduce the pinging.
