pre ignition question

Featured Replies

Hey I was wondering what pre-ignition smells like. I seem to get a slight pinging around 3k or so, and my timing is about 10 degrees BTDC. After driving for awhile I get a smell in the car like when you weld or grind metal. Is that the smell of pre-ignition? Thanks guys

Chris
