<VV> To Ping or Not to Ping ? - "Premium" vs. "regular" gas

[J R Read]

Bill,

Turn your radio down.  A 140 on 87?  In my opinion, you are kidding 
yourself, unless you NEVER get into the secondaries.

We ARE in agreement on de-flashing the heads.

Final note - synthetic oil should be the oil of choice - though you did not 
mention that.

 Since then I have ceased the 91 or 92 octane fuel and settled on 87 with no 
noticeable ping.
