Im back again. I replaced the filter and took it to an old counrty road and opened it up and got it to about 85mph before the curve made me let off. Not a single problem. About two days ago i had to putt my buddies silverado in its place and once i hit 90mph+ the light starts blinking again. What is it now.
Thanks

is it possible the computer is a smart-*** and wants to tell you to slow down? haha

A flashing CEL means that the PCM has detected a potentially harmful misfire.

With a good scan tool, the computer will TELL you which cylinders it is missing on.
