Blinking check engine light
I was driving for about an hour straight mostly freeway and I started on an incline and all of a sudden I felt a slight jerk and a little sputter and my check engine light started blinking and has continued. Anybody have a clue about what it could be or can maybe point me in the direction of some help. 2000 Acura TL base model all stock.

Blinking CEL is missfire of some sort. Was it just the one occurrence or does it happen frequently? Have yo done any work to it lately?
To start, get the codes to confirm. Probably a bad coil, but could also be clogged EGR, valves in need of adjustment, spark plug/s, injector/s, timing belt or even some bad fuel.
