Is it normal for the engine to make a "ping" sound after I turn it off? It's been cold in VA lately - not sure if the weather makes it ping more then if the weather was warmer. For about 10 minutes after I turn off the engine I hear a "ping" sound. Most people I spoke to about it says it normal. I also own a Harley Ulta Classic and it makes the same sound after turning the engine off - so I am kind of agreeing that it's OK - but I figured I'd ask the experts on these forums for an opinion.
