Question Will My KNOCK sensor detect PINGING?

Does anyone know the difference between knocking and pinging?

If my engine is pinging, would my knock sensor be counting it?

Your help is greatly appreciated!

Knocking and pinging? Hmmm. Difference? Hmmmm. If an engine is making noise, I just call it "not running right"
As far as your knock sensor picking it up, yes. The knock sensor will sense any abnormal (or sometimes normal ) noise and retard the timing.
