It is not recommended that you do so. You should take your automobile to an auto shop as soon as possible.

A flashing engine light means you have a condition that can cause a catastrophic failure to the cat converter. Usually this is from a missing spark in one or more cylinders. When this happens, the computer turns off the fuel injectors to those cylinders. Get it checked ASAP or you will pay much more later.
