PINGING ENGINE ON 84 TURBO 200

posted by  someone claiming to be DAN on  Thu Aug 8 07:38 CST 2002 [RELATED]

I JUST REPLACED MY WRECKED 262C WITH AN IMMACULATE 84 242TI. IT HAS BEEN A WHILE SINCE I'VE HAD A 200 SERIES TURBO SO I AM THROWING THIS QUESTION OUT THERE TO FIELD ANY EXPERIENCED RECOMENDATIONS. THE CAR HAS A DOCUMENTED 130K MILES WITH FREQUENT OIL CHANGES AND SERVICES. AT FULL BOOST IN THE UPPER RPM RANGE I HAVE NOTICEABLE DETONATION UNTIL I BACK OUT OF THE THROTTLE. I FILLED THE CAR WITH PREMIUM AND HAD THE SAME RESULTS. AIR TEMP WAS ABOUT 68 DEGREES AT AN ALTITUDE OF ABOUT 200 FEET.
THANKS FOR ANY INPUT.
