Have the code read, alot of parts houses will do this for free. Trying to guess what is going on and throwing a lot of parts at it can get costly.

DIY code read click

site also has list of 2 and 3 digit codes and detailed description of OBD1

generic intermittent flashing CEL could be almost anything from MAF to 02 sensor or tranny

or try local NAPA, many will read codes for free expecting to sell parts

please post codes to Aero forum and we will help
