kandiman71874 Posted June 17, 2009 Report Share Posted June 17, 2009 Let me put it this way, if its the check engine light flashing ( you wern't specific on which engine light, kinda like the 50 miles thing) it is flashing because there is a catalyst damaging condition with your vehicle which 9 times out of 10 is a cylinder missfire causing it. so yes, it can tear crap up if not addressed in a timely manner. Hows the car running anyway?

Quote That's why they don't deliver. Yer ass better go sit along the side of the road and wait. You can't expect them to travel up some dirt road in a hick / back woods town. Thats how horror movies start I explain things very simply and use analogies in terms of Pickles, and grape drink, pool noodles and jackhammers...if you can't put 2 and 2 together there man, There simply is not much more I can do.

Hows the car running anyway? ^this is why it's flashing. The $1000 may be for a oem replacement catalytic converter(CC) which is the whole mid pipe and the labor to fix whatever is causing the issue. Raw gas in the CC will screw it up and clog it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blue_C1500 Posted June 18, 2009 Report Share Posted June 18, 2009 Make sure your gas cap is on tight. That was the number 1 reason I saw a flashing SES light, followed a close second to misfires.
