If you're referring to spark knock, it could be many things: If you're stock, I'd look for bad gas, carbon buildup on the pistons or a clogged fuel filter. If you're modded it could be your tune.
Let us know a little more about your car and we might be able to help.
thanks for suggestions,car is stock for now,still shmoozing wife for going along with the purchase.I did just have a bg44k induction service on it and haven't had the chance to drive it hard since so hopefully the problem will be gone.
forgot to describe sound it does sound like a knock wich scared the shit outta me at first,but I had a 94 z28 that would make a similar sound,it's just a very quick ping.
Umm, if it's stock and it's pinging you should take it back to the dealer. Are you using 87 octane or something? Is your wife filling it up?
