Sometimes it would just have a sudden impulse to jump.

Hi,

If the check engine light blinks, that indicates a misfire, and you will notice the engine vibrate. If you have a scan tool, scan the computer for codes.

Here is a quick video showing how it is done:

If you don't own a scan tool, most parts stores will do it free of charge. Have it done and record the codes found. Let me know what they are, and I can help you get it fixed.

Take care,

Joe
