How big of a ping is it and where abouts is it coming from? There is a few things that could be causing that sound.... do you have any more specifics?

its coming from the belt side of the engine... i'm thinking it's the gears or the belt.. (hoping its the belt) .. today i stated up the car and let it run for a while and reved it up and nothing happened...

ok i don't know why but it stopped.. funny thing is the only thing i did was fill up the tank with 94 octane gas... and added some injector cleaner.. took the saame trip sunday that i did on friday and the car is running so much more smoother and i can feel the power so much more... even fallowed a bmw 645ci doind 120 for about 5 miles ... but i will be getting a full tune up when i get paid again.. and changine the fuel fillter..
