2001 Honda CRV, smooth idle, slight pinging noise when gas pedal is pressed
Help!
2001 Honda CRV, 33,000 miles, oil change approx 4,500 everytime, replaced the spark plugs tonight. Before changing the plugs to Splitfire SF522D (specified in the retailers handbook), I had average acceleration, and smooth idle. Now I changed to the SF522D, gapped correctly to manufacturer specs, and I hear a slight pinging during deceleration of any kind (sitting still or coasting to stop). Any ideas? --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free. Checked by AVG anti-virus system (http://www.grisoft.com). Version: 6.0.518 / Virus Database: 316 - Release Date: 9/11/2003 |

Never hear a vehicle ping at idle or deceleration.

I suggest that you remove them and throw them in a trash can and replace them with the same brand and type of plugs that were in it before. If you don't know the brand or type--buy them from the parts desk at the local Honda Dealership. Make sure you tell the person at the parts desk that you want the same type of plugs that are installed in new CRVs. |

Hi,
Spitfire is snake oil. Lots of people had problem with it. Just put in a set of NGK Platinum or Iridium plugs and forget about plugs LONG time. Tony Bill B.
