[Shotimes] there arose such a clatter

[Paul L Fisher]

I would agree (Oh no.... I agreed with Ron twice in one day). As I stated 
previously, when my car pings, I can hear it for a second and then the PCM back 
out the timing. Only when it is really hot or I've been particularly mean to my 
car will it do that.
