Just found this...

". If the mixture ignites on it's own or at the wrong time of the stroke- excessive pressures are put on crank, valves, push rods....bla bla bla. this will **** an engine in no time.."...........that is called "pre-ignition", and is usuallly caused by the motor being really hot, and the petrol/air mix ignites (detonates??) early......

yes thank you for that correction. too many conez n beers.
p.s. spliting hairs only yields boring conversation tho.
there's a specific time and place for fuel and air, under pressure, to ignite. lets leave it at that hey?
