Tundra V8 Engine Ping
I've got an engine ping in my V8 Tundra and my dealer has not figured it out. It occurs when I am loaded and just before it shifts down, the engine pings. I've run high octane gas, even octane booster. Installed Iridium plugs, dealer replaced air intake sensor. Anyone have any ideas? Is it possible that the timing belt is stretched. The dealer tells me it is a cog type belt.
