Your statement from the start is that you retarted the timing because of pinging. Then you got the timing light and retarted it some more. Now you have it completely retarted and it wont go anymore. If all your statements are correct then you need to advance your timming not retard it anymore. I know when my accord it at full retard it runs nothing like it does at full advance. I think no one has replied or tried to help because the information you gave doesnt really make sense.
