Welcome
There are a few reasons that you could be getting this code.
A dirty MAF
A partially clogged fuel filter
A weak fuel pump
A bad O2 sensor. (The code is for the passenger side closest to the engine)
A vacuum leak.
I would clean the MAF (Instructions in the FAQ thread at the top of this forum) and change the fuel filter first.
The code is probably either from a vacuum leak (Check the PCV hose elbows) or a dirty MAF.
The pinging could be from a clogged fuel filter, dirty MAF or insufficient fuel pressure if it only does it when the throttle is wide open.
