My '94 Explorer pings horribly whenever I put regular octane gas in it. The pinging is worst when I accelerate. I've been putting premium gas in it and that helps quite a bit, but it still pings whenever I accelerate into a stiff wind. I've changed spark plugs, wires, air filter and fuel filter. Nothing seems to help. My mechanic says that the vehicle doesn't need premium gas, but it sure seems to run a lot better on it. Any help or suggestions would be appreciated.
