Probably should have rejected it via PayPal, though it's now installed (soldered into the dizzy).

Pulled out three degrees of timing: 13º initial, 35º all-in. Now it's stopped pinging. It mebbe could take a degree or so more, but with the way I lean on this thing a little safety margin is not a bad idea.

Why the new dizzy would make the engine tolerate three degrees less is beyond me. Mebbe harmonic balancer ring slip over time, and a coincidence with the new dizzy, but unlikely. There are days when I feel like Oddball from Kelly's Heroes:

Oddball: Hi, man.
Big Joe: What are you doing?
Oddball: I'm drinking wine and eating cheese, and catching some rays, you know.
Big Joe: What's happening?
Oddball: Well, the tank's broke and they're trying to fix it.
Big Joe: Well, then, why the hell aren't you up there helping them?
Oddball: [chuckles] I only ride 'em, I don't know what makes 'em work.

Cheers,
Harv

The quality of fuel is pretty variable in my observation. I just put a tank of 95 in the ute now it is running better. Slight pinging evident. Nothing like the issues I was having before I replaced the module, which was louder and lower frequency between pings. Sedan is doing the same after filling it with 91.
