Re: HELP ASAP!! When you have the SES light blinking, you have a major problem. For example, one cylinder is not working right. 75 or 100 shot is fine for a stock engine. But, if you had the NOS on and miss shifted hitting the rev limiter, it could cause a problem. You could bend a pushrod or break a spring easy!
I would say, check all the wires very carefully. Then, change your spark plugs if the wires are ok. I think that is where your problem is!
One more thing! Get NGK TR6 plugs gaped at 45, they are way better!

Re: HELP ASAP!! Auto-lites in a LS1 <img border="0" alt="[shoot]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_guns.gif" /> Blinking ses light is a missfire occuring now. I would 2nd the ngk recommendation.
