engine ping in warm weather

i have read alot of folks in here have had pinging problems.
and everyone posts there ideas to fix it and there is alot but where do you start.
but heres my problem when the weather is warm my engine on my 94 explorer ping even under a slight load even with super unleaded ( 94 octane) the few things i have tried was new mass air flow meter,flushing the engine to remove carbon buildup,coolent temprature sensor,thermostat and tightend down all my intake bolts and checked for air leaks if anyone has any other ideas it would greatly be appreciated before i send it to the crusher and buy a DODGE
thanks
