Hi,

Nope. I don't agree. Since Kleinig rebuilt the carbs and retuned the engine there is no pinging. It used to ping badly, but then again the carbs hadn't been touched for 25 years and were in a sad state. It used to ping badly under load - even light load.
Now, however, it doesn't ping at all. Maybe it would if I floored it in 3rd gear at 10kph - but I don't do that sort of thing. Not good to labour the engine like this.
And, I'm talking about 9.7 compression on this engine. It may ping on normal ULP (I don't put standard ULP int the tank) - but it runs great on Optimax and Ultimate. No EFI on this old lady, just the sweet rushing sound of sucking carbs. And, what a wonderful sound it is!
