See what codes are in memory, autozone and advance will check them for free. Post them here. A flashing SES light indicates a misfire and will probably have a P0300 series DTC in memory.

Without diagnosing the problem, (ie. retrieve DTC's etc) anything that you do would be a guess. Check with the owner and see how many miles since it was last tuned up, what was replaced, what brand of parts were used, etc etc. Find out anything you can about the maintenance history and let us know.
