RE: Pinging with new pluenum? 89octane
Which parts should I have used? Rtv black high temp.. new gasket and a in/lb torque wrench? Could bad gas cause it? It jus started today. an it kinda boggs out.. I will try some heat and new gas.. if not then I might need some ideas to fix the problem.

the bogging sounds like a vacuum leak.
if its been running fine for 2 months,and just started pinging yesterday, don't panic.
could be some bad gas.
could be a broken, cracked, or rotted vacuum line, including all the way down to the t-case. sometimes its easier just to temporarily plug them all at the manifold, and do a short test drive. it its ok, then add them back one at a time until you find it.
could be carbon buildup.
