What could it mean when my SES light blinks? Ill have my codes run soon, but I want to know now, Im a little impatient. My alternator is getting a bit weak, so Im guessing maybe that?? Which reminds me, anyone have an alternator for sale, cheap?

does it run bad? maybe an o2 code or a random misfire code. hard to tell till you scan it

yeah, it starts sputtering at about 5krpm and backfiring through the tailpipes. I figured it was because it wasnt shooting enough spark at higher rpms

sounds like a front 02 sensor. its not metering the fuel right. causing a lean condition under cruise. but when you hit it itll sputter and look like your fogging for bugs. . however get it scanned to be 110% sure before you throw money at it. and if it is o2s. do not buy the autozone bosch garbage. they are set lean. you will not like it .get some ac delco o2s
