My dodge has a little miss to it when at a steady speed. It idles good. Also has a little pinging noise under load and slight miss. I have changed plugs,wires,distibutor cap, and rotor. Still have same problem.
Thanks

Hi: Start with having the knock sensor checked. It is responsible for adjusting to the max point right before the valves ping.

Let me know what you find.
