hey guys just wondering can either the map sensor or the tps switch cause pinging when underload on an EL XR6?
pinging gets worst when the car is hot. |

Knock sensor or a lean condition. EDIT: Timing could be advanced out of the knock sensors range. Trying a tank of 95 or 98 could point you in the right direction too.

1) Check timing.
2) Check Fuel Filter. 3) Check Fuel Reg. 4) How old is the fuel? |

timing is good pretty much spot on the mark, fuel is good as I fill up each week with 98, fuel filter should be good as I change it not too long ago and fuel reg unsure about would there be much difference going from a 300kpa XR6 one to an au standard one?

About 30kpa difference. Go to a wrecker and get a 3bar from a xr6 and a 3.5bar from a VCT/XR6 and trial them.

To fit the AU VCT Reg you will need either an AU or BA/BF Fuel Rail. When did it start pinging? After fitting the 270kpa reg or was it fine untill the weather warmed up? |

I think maybe after installing the au fuel rail. but it ping bad when it gets warm and 2300rpm to 3500rpm especially on a hot day and travelling up a hill if that helps?

It's running lean, up the fuel pressure to a 3 or 3.5bar regulator. I had good results with the 3.5.
