WHAT DOES PINGING MEAN IN ENGLISH?

Engine knocking

Knocking in spark-ignition internal combustion engines occurs when combustion of the air/fuel mixture in the cylinder starts off correctly in response to ignition by the spark plug, but one or more pockets of air/fuel mixture explode outside the envelope of the normal combustion front. The fuel-air charge is meant to be ignited by the spark plug only, and at a precise point in the piston's stroke. Knock occurs when the peak of the combustion process no longer occurs at the optimum moment for the four-stroke cycle. The shock wave creates the characteristic metallic "pinging" sound, and cylinder pressure increases dramatically. Effects of engine knocking range from inconsequential to completely destructive. Knocking should not be confused with pre-ignition--they are two separate events. However, pre-ignition is usually followed by knocking.

Definition of pinging in the English dictionary

The definition of pinging in the dictionary is the emission of a characteristic metallic noise as a result of faulty combustion. Other definition of pinging is short high-pitched resonant sounds, as of bullets striking metal or sonar echoes.
