Can't loose that ping
 

Well I've tried retarding the timing, upping the octane, cooler spark plugs,
even (at the suggestion of JeepsRUs) tried one of those tornado thingys all
which didn't work. Still have pinging. Luckily, JeepsRUs refunded the
57.00 for the tornado thing when it didn't work. So I guess the next step
is to put the 4.0L head on the bugger. This I had planned anyway but I
didn't want to be forced into it.

booo hsssss

Re: Can't loose that ping
 

But, your manifold won't fit the 4.0 litre head. Maybe, put a
sandwich gasket in and loose a compression.

Re: Can't loose that ping
 

yeah, I have to get a 4.0L manifold. I have the head and the valve cover.
I need the manifold and a kit for the head bolts (7/16 to 1/2 inch).

shouldn't be too much more in parts. mostly labor at this point. something
I didn't really want to do but no way around it.
