I dumped in a bottle of chevron fuel system cleaner and filled the tank with 92 octane mixed with the 87 octance already in there 1/2 and 1/2.
I'm gonna try the MAF cleaning.. Bought me a bottle of electrical parts cleaner. Oh forgot to tell you that I might have over oiled my K&N. I hope cleaning it this weekend solves it!
I still hear this sort of static, slight rattling when the car is in OD 4th and I give it some gas while cruising. Happens around 2-3k rpms.
Dunno could be a loose heat shield?? But only seems to occur under light load in the above rpm range. When it decides to downshift all I hear is the rush of air going into the engine.

Still have no idea what pinging sound likes.. Anyone what to educate me? Know the theory but never actually heard it?
You guys/gals are great!
