Supercharged 2 Posted February 8, 2008 Was it genuine (Bosch) and did you torque it correctly? How long has it been Pinking? could be a bad tank of fuel... Maybe go out with a 13mm ratchet spanner and back the dizzy off until it stops (mark it first with some tippex!) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
