When the check engine lamp flashes, it indicates that there is a misfire bad enough to cause damage to the cat. converter.
My guess is you will have misfire codes. Either P0300-P0308. |

Its usually an ignition problem. Bad coil, worn/bad plug, bad wire. Sometimes it can be fuel or cylinder related (loss of compression) or a vacuum leak near that cylinder causing a lean miss.

AC Delco. for plugs. AC Delco/Delphi for the coil.
Before you throw parts at it, what code did you have? |
