Pinging in a 96 DX
well its a 96 with 96K. only has K&N filter. it pings if i accelerate hard around 4K to 6K RPM. it doesnt happen all the time. i run 87 octane but i read here that a DX doesnt need anything more. what can i do??

you are detonating...DON'T DO THAT ANYMORE!!!!!
try higher octane gas first, see if that helps...then clean you injectors...and go from there.
